[quote=Anonymous]The biggest con is that my only asks for/about a sibling on a regular basis. He is 6, and this has been going on since about age 3. It makes me sad, and makes me question our decision. The pros are more time, energy and money. I do not have the patience to handle another child. My only is pretty demanding, and that's all I can handle. It is more work to entertain them. I was a friends house recently and marveled at how her two kept each other entertained while the grown ups talked. Mine would never have been satisfied in that situation and would have been demanding to be in the center of the conversation. A big pro during COVID is the ability to afford or at least consider affording private school. Not something I thought we would ever need or want, but here we are.[/quote]
