I’m so glad to hear that. I did a lot of research on sibling dynamics because I have siblings and two kids. But my husband and my son’s best friend are only children and I realized we make so many assumptions about how they develop simply because they don’t have siblings and those assumptions are so off. So this was a really interesting one to dive into.
Thank you for this. I have been wrestling with my son’s “onlyness” for a bit, and this is such wonderful, in depth information for me.

This is an excellent with depth, as an only child I agree that there is nothing wrong with it.
