There are definitely pros and cons to being an only child. I had my parents to myself, I had an amazing childhood, and I’ve been incredibly lucky with the opportunities I’ve had. good schools, travel, support, all of it. I’m really grateful for that.
But I think the older I get, ive realised my parents are my only family, and thats quite scary. There isn’t a sibling to share the memories with, to navigate adulthood with, or to talk to, someone who’s actually family.
I wouldn’t trade my parents or the childhood they gave me, but I do sometimes wish I had a brother or sister- someone who just gets the same family, the same stories, the same people, and who I could do life alongside
