My DH is an only child, so is his Mum so it was him that wanted more than 1 to break the chain (his words!).
I am 1 of 3 but grew up as 1 of 2 (My Mum left then went on to have my sis, leaving my Dad to bring me & my bro up - I was almost 3 & my bro 18 months at the time) I hated being so close in age to my bro but that could have been due to the circumstances too.

I thought this earlier today when it was mentioned but deciced to mind my own at the time, but... I am an only child, I had a lovely, well balanced, kind and caring upbringing, I'm really close to my parents now and always have been despite my Dad being a lighthouse keeper and away for most of my first 12 years. My cousin on my Mum's side was a very close childhood companion and we certainly fought like siblings lol. I was always really happy to be on my own, in fact I love it now even, I love 9am when the last of my lot leave for the day and I have the day to myself

One huge advantage both for my kids and my parents is there is only one set of grandchildren and that makes for lots of fuss and love coming their way on both sides

I don't think (hope) I come across as selfish or spoilt which is the normal "cliche" for only children, and apart from all the normal traumas we all suffer and perhaps I'm a little antisocial sometimes, I think I have had a normal, happy, healthy and lucky life so far.

Hope that helps all and any of you ladies with one child at the moment xxxxxx

Thanks Nicky good to know also - there is an only child at work and it tells :eek: and scares me but she is only one person and she might have been like that even if she had siblings!!!
