I'm an only child! Sometimes I wish I had an older/ younger brother or sister only because my parents are OBVIOUSLY new at being parents and now a days many ppl aRe NOT only children. My parents are on my case a little too much and I feel like they are treating me as if im a CHILD whos running looseeee. Its pretty bad, rough, and REALLY annoying. THEREFORE, THOSE OF YOU'S WHO HATE YOUR BROHER/ SISTER & CONSIDER URSELF UNLUCKY, THINK AGAIN!

I was an only child for almost nine years before, i was 9yo when my younger sister was born. I feel for you. Aside from the focused attention, being a lone child was so boring, most of the time sad. It arose insecurities in me because of the feeling of being alone. Just got so lucky that after 9 years, my sister came, and another was born after 3 years. Inspite of the wide age gap i have with my two younger sisters, we have a bey good relationship as we're not only sisters but best of friends. You're right, having sisters or brothers is such a luck.

It is truelly a blessing. People don't always realize that but it really is. Aside from other ups n downs I presume.
