[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sure this will not be a popular post---my kids are 13, 11 and 9 and almost every only child I know is smothered and the kids run their parents whining about anything that doesn't go their way. Noticeably unable to handle negative situations compared to other children. Just saying my experience. I also find huge in families (obviously not mine), the kids seem to be the most mature. [/quote] My experience, over the holidays: I have 3 adult kids and they all whine. Coming home for them means coming home to have mom take care of them. My sister has one who is amazingly independent. I enjoyed talking to her over the holidays - she really has her shit together. I felt envious and told my sister who was kind to say it has nothing to do with family size and everything to do with innate personality.[/quote]
