I Am An Only Child

I'm an only child, my parents couldn't have had the time to have a second child. I was super clingy to my mom and my dad, he wasn't always around and eventually divorced my mom.

I definitely can't have a sibling now, well I guess I could if they adopted, but I don't think they'd want a another's child — not because I was a terrible tyrant or anything. Well, maybe it's more that I don't want a sibling so I'll always be in the center of their hearts. That sounds kind of selfish, doesn't it?

hi NobleTiramisu
One child syndrome comes to mind but I am sure each person is an individual and handles life in their own way. I have 3 siblings but felt like an only child in my dysfunctional family which kept us separate from one another to keep abuse a secret. That is my understanding of matters anyway - of course I am alone in this view!
