“Did you ever feel like you were missing out on having a sibling?”
In a word YES but quite frankly I’m surprised my Mummy Dearest managed to actually come near enough to Dad for even ghost, the poor bugger. Having a second would of been a bloody magic trick.
I missed having one and in some ways I still do. I think lone children grow up quite differently to siblings. We’re much more used to do solo activities etc, as there’s nobody else.
I’d love to know if there’s been studies on it and if reading is much more prevalent in solo kids, as I know it was and obviously still is a big thing for me & I doubt I’m alone.
