[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, the reason parents of onlies sound defensive is that having an only is going against the social norm. That means you get a crapload of judgement from parents, coworkers, friends, etc who all tell you "oh, you MUST give that child a sibling!" So are we conflicted? Hell yes. Are we making the right decision for our families? Double hell yes. Do we still need support, and for people like you to please, please cut us a break and stop adding to our conflict? Yes.[/quote] Loved this. NP here and mom of a 2 1/2 year old only. Some people don't seem to understand why us parents of onlies need support, and PP nailed it. We are not w/ the norm, so it's nice to meet others like us. I also think it would be nice for our children to meet others w/o siblings. On that note, anyone live in MoCo and want to get the kids together?[/quote]
