[quote=Anonymous]All the generalizations on this thread ring untrue to me. I know plenty of families with 1-4 kids and there is such variation in kids’ personalities and parenting styles, that I don’t think its possible to make assumptions based on family size.

For instance, my son is friends with an only who goes absolutely nuts when he is in a big group of kids. Very loud and unruly. But I know other only children who are very calm and mature. We also have a number of friends with 3 kids who are fairly calm/quiet (one is a military family so they run a tight ship). And I know a couple families of 4 where the kids are a mixed bag, but they tend to divide so you don’t often see them out all at once. But another family of 4 boys we know who are close in age (went for 3 and ended up with twins) seem to travel as a pack and the kids are chaotic.

And then of course I’d say the bulk of families we know have 2 kids and they are all over the place in terms of kid behavior and parenting. [/quote]
