[quote=Anonymous]I know that I do too much for my only, things like helping tie his shoes, cut his sandwich, lay out his clothes, etc., and I see other kids his age doing these things on their own because their parents are busy with other kids, so in that sense he is less mature. But, he is very confident in the presence of adults, and has no problem sitting in a room full of grown ups and finding something to talk about or something to do. We are also able to chase his dreams a bit more than larger families, so if he has an interest in space let's say, we'll talk about that at dinner, watch youtubes, read books, and go to the space museum, because we have the time and mind to do it, and I think that makes him a bit more mature in many ways. As others have said, it's a mixed bag.[/quote]
