Yep, it all adds up.

Yeah, it’s a bit shit. We’ve got one who’s a year and a half old, but just think another isn’t really an option now.

Yes, I am an only child.

I’ve never felt normal either. When I was a kid I always felt more comfortable around adults and less comfortable around children my age, which is apparently a common characteristic. Maybe it’s because as an only child, you’re less constantly ‘exposed’ to other children of a similar age since you don’t live with any, compared to the overwhelming majority of kids who do? It might explain why I was very, very shy at school and felt less ‘with it’ than everyone else (and why early secondary school was so intensely horrible).

Socially it’s shit, and I’d say it has messed me up. On the other hand it’s a luxury because the resources and attention of your parents isn’t divided and you never have to share anything. Definitely worth it overall.

I don’t think I’ve ever met an only child who stood out as particularly unusual

Are @bird and all his mates are only children? going by the weird/not weird thread … there’s more than just siblings that are responsible for odd behaviour.

funny you should ask that, man. I’d say 70% of the weird/not weird examples given are from only children. read into this what you will.

I’m not, btw. got a brother AND a sister. again, read into this what you will

#62

all your friends have one thing in common though don’t they :wink:
