[quote=Anonymous]OP-I'm an PP and an only. The only local relative we had was my grandmother and she was not fuzzy or nice in any way. She would actually choose to go elsewhere for holidays rather than our house just to spite my dad. So I wished for a nice grandmother who baked cookies and hosted family dinners. And guess what? I married into a family that was like this. My H has brothers, including a younger one (I always wanted a little brother) and a grandmother who baked cookies and hosted meals for holidays. Some days it's like heaven having a big family and other days I am so so glad I can step away since I'm not blood related to those people. ;) I agree with a PP who suggested therapy in order to work on not projecting your issues about being an only onto your daughter. Your daughter doesn't have to have the same experience as you. And she may end up marrying into a big family and have the best of both worlds![/quote]
