[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Most people understand that an "only child" is often a disadvantaged child, unless parents go out of their way to mitigate the unfortunate consequences of the circumstances. That's why my pediatric psychiatrist employer jump at the prospect of my bringing my child to work, even in spite of my well-established high rates.

Some of you wish to repeatedly downplay this reality. By no means is it the best solution for every single family, especially when there already are several children. [/quote]

Oh my, you are delusional, as well as selfish.

An only child is not "disadvantaged" and there are are no "unfortunate consequences of the circumstances" that need mitigating by giving you free child care.

Give this nonsense up. It bears no resemblance to reality. [/quote]
It's not quite the stigma that it used to be, to be an only child.[/quote]

Yes it's more convenient for the parents and their careers and their pocketbooks, so its happening now more than ever. It doesn't change the fact that only children are notoriously egocentric, selfish, and lacking the empathy that comes from having siblings. It's not just a stereotype. ALL of my friends that are also only children, though nice people, have real issues understanding the point of views of others, and thinking beyond their own personal needs and desires. [/quote]
Don't most only children beg endlessly for a sibling?[/quote]
