Someone once told me: "The best gift you can give to an only child is a sibling. Shows them they aren't the center of the world."

- ck425 8y agoYou can do that via good parenting too. The myth of the self absorbed only child is just that, a myth.
- toasterlovin 8y agoThis is true. But I was thinking more about just getting through life. Governments and pension systems come and go. But as long as you have living siblings, you’ve got pretty damn good insurance against all the stuff that goes wrong in life.
- therealdrag0 8y agoMy cousin is an only child and he turned out great and had a great childhood. I kinda envy the amount of family time and adventures they were able to go on. Part of it might be family culture, but seems like with one kid you can "do" a lot more, where as with 3 kids, doing things were often frustrating endeavors and just "maintaining" was more the norm.
