hotgurl Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I think it may be nicer for the kid to have more siblings or at least one. Many only child feels lonely,no one to relate to other then their parents. I like your responsible thinking as a men. Having kids is something serious. So dont do it based on what others say. I disagree with that I was an only child and I never felt lonely. I always had cousins or friends around to play with. Link to post Share on other sites
turnera Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 My DD25 is an only child and she feels she missed out on a lot, having no one else to bounce stuff off of. No closeness with anyone. No connection. She's a loner; she has friends, but she's an introvert, and I really think if she'd had to contend with a brother or sister it would have brought out more of 'her.' And personally, I wanted 3 kids but H only wanted one. I gave in to his wishes, and I regret it all.the.time. We talked about fostering but he's not the right kind of person to be a foster. If I'd married someone else, I'd be fostering for the rest of my life, to help all those kids who need help. But my H would have made things worse for them, not better.
