[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the parent of an only child. That was not our plan; we wanted two kids. But my DW had two miscarriages after DD was born. We tried to adopt after the second, but a few months into the process I was diagnosed with metastatic cancer. The social worker we were working with said that it would be disqualifying. DD is now a HS student. Socially, there are huge disadvantage to being an only child: many of the conflict resolution skills she would have developed with a sibling are undeveloped. [/quote] Don't worry, my three kids are very adept at constant bickering and also seem to have no conflict resolution skills. [/quote]
