Topic	Are you an ONLY CHILD or do you have SIBLINGS???
LinkPizza 10/31/18 4:34:15 PM #39:	Dikitain posted... It is not a "want", it is a "need". You aren't going to want to make friends if you were never forced to interact with people your age (or in the most severe cases even be able to in the first place). Plus cousins might work, but how often do you actually see your cousins? Once a week? Once a month? Once a year? Siblings you are forced to see daily. That's not true. I was never forced to interact with people my age and made plenty of friends. But if you need to be forced to interact with people your age, then you do that at school. You do not NEED siblings to be able to interact with other people. You specifically may, but that's not normal for most people. Also, just because you have siblings doesn't mean they are close to you in age. My siblings are 9 and 14 years younger, so that wouldn't help much. Also, I went school with my cousins are different points in my life, so it was daily at times. Dikitain posted... See above. Plus while there are exceptions, the majority of only children I have met are in similar situations to me. The biggest trait tends to be that they are more independent, but with that comes the social issues as well. Maybe on this site, but I don't see that in the real world much. And being in the military lets you see a variety of people with very different lives growing up... Dikitain posted... Semi-unrelated, but you never heard of bullying? I would say "not wanting to get bullied" is a pretty good excuse for a kid not to want to go to school. Back on topic, have you never heard about it because it is rare or have you never heard about it because people are too insulated/ashamed to talk about it? Or maybe because lots of kids don't mind going to school to see their friends. Bullying sucks, sure. And some kids don't want to go to school because of that. You said you didn't want to go because other kids were there. Or, that's what it sounds like. In the end, I know that you don't need siblings to grow up well adjusted. They can possibly help, but are not needed. That is a fact. I know plenty of well-adjusted humans who were only children. Just like I know plenty who have siblings and are a mess. Even on here, people talk about how messed up some of their siblings are. Some people on this site aren't very social, and have siblings. And it didn't help them much. You may have needed siblings in your life. I won't doubt that. But most people don't need siblings to grow up fine. Most can go to school and make friends easily... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
