I've had a heated discussion with a friend on whether it is better to have only one child in the family or several children. We obviously had way different opinions about the matter. But it doesn't matter because each of us are entitled to our own opinions. I would however like to ask your opinion now on whether it is better growing up with only one sibling or growing up with several siblings? I hope you can also tell us why you think so. Thanks.

I prefer two,one boy and a girl. My boyfriend has a twin and I like the idea of having a twin children too because you just have to carry and give birth to them once. But whatever will be given to me is a blessing so I'll accept it wholeheartedly without complain.^^,

I grew up in a family with one brother and 4 sisters. I would have to say that i would rather have them in my life than be an only chld. Family means a great deal to me and we always stay in contact with one and other. I know if i need help or someone to talk to, one of them is always there. I am the yougest of all. I can always count on one of them being able to help when help is needed.
I would have hated growing up all alone. I enjoyed having a family member who wanted to play even if another didn't. I wouldn't trade my siblings for the world.

I grew up with only one brother... I really miss not having a sister. The closest I have to a sister is my best friend. We share everything together, and help each other out when we need it. I really envy my hubby... he has 6 brothers and 4 sisters, totally opposite to my family. We have 4 kids together and we think that these days thats a perfect number to have. I would have liked more brothers and sisters, but on the other hand if I came from a large family I am sure that I would have wished otherwise lol :-)

well in my case i do have two kids and if god will give me another kid i wont regret. but having a family it is important to plan for the future of our child not having children we we could not give the best for them. no matter how many siblings you have as long as you can take care of it.
