[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]During this heat wave I am so glad I don't have an only. My 4.5 and 7 year old boys have been playing fantastically with no fights. They get long great. Older one said last night--I am soooo glad I have a brother. We just returned from two vacations where they had each other to chase around the beach, etc. [b]Less work for mom and dad[/b] and they are never bored. [/quote] Why do you parents of 2+ feel compelled to read threads about the advantages of only children, only to preach about the wonders of more than one???[/quote] Being the parent of an only is not "easier." I've found many parents of multiples, especially those close in age, say how much "easier" it is with multiples because they entertain each other, rather than having the parents engage with their children. When parents do engage in their children's play, it is often to break up fights, rather than to play with their children.[/quote]
