[quote=Anonymous]OP specifically mentions onlies born to older parents. This in particular cuts both ways I think. On the one hand they will have less time with their parents overall than they would if their parents had been younger when they were born and once their parents pass they will be on their own. That's true. On the other hand the quality of the time they have with their parents can be much more positive because they are the only child and there is no competition for time or closeness. Also people who have just one child later in life tend to be more financially well off. And with only one child to raise and send to college they should have more financial resources in old age. It's true money doesn't solve everything but it solves a lot of things. And when that parent passes they will leave their entire estate to their one child.[/quote]
