[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not an only, but my sibling and I haven't spoken in a decade. You aren't guaranteed a partner.[/quote] Many people post complaining about their parents and conflict, stress, obligations, etc. But I’m sure no one would claim that children/adults shouldn’t have parents. To claim that having no siblings is best bc there are anecdotes of sibling conflict is absurd [/quote] No one is saying that no siblings is best (except for maybe one or two extreme PPs). They're saying that you shouldn't have multiple children to be "fair" (using OP's own words) for later difficulties in life. You often hear people say "don't you want to give your daughter a friend?" or "you should have multiple children so they can share the burden of your old age" and things like that. That's what people are refuting. They are pointing out that the real world does not guarantee butterflies and sunshine. OP trolled about it being "unfair" to onlies, so people are pointing out that there are positive aspects too.[/quote]
