[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an adult only child.  I understand what you're saying OP.  There are times when you can feel really alone.  Recently my DH and I were putting together our wills etc. and I kind of realized [b]other than my DD, DH and my parents I didn't have anyone to leave anything to.[/b]  I have a few cousins but I'm not close to any of them.  Thankfully I have a very good relationship with my parents and they spend half the year in the area so we see them a lot and have a good feeling of family with them.  My parents have also planned substantially for their retirement and old age.  That gives me some comfort that it won't be to overwhelming on me as they age.  DH has 2 siblings that he gets along well with but they are not particularly close and we're lucky to see them once a year.  There are pluses and minuses to different family sizes.  Being an only has some down sides but it also has its positives.  Don't focus on the downsides focus your energy on the family you have no matter what the size.  [/quote]
