The Hazards of Being an Only Child
Some people who have grown up in multichild families think that being an only child is the best of all possible worlds. They point to such benefits as the only child’s annual new wardrobe and the lack of competition for parental love. But single-child status isn’t as good as people say it is. Instead of having everything they want, only children are sometimes denied certain basic human needs.
First, only children lack companionship. An only child can have trouble making friends, since he or she isn’t used to being around other children. Often, the only child comes home to an empty house; both parents are working, and there are no brothers or sisters to play with or to talk to about the day. Owing to this lack of companionship, an only child sometimes lacks the social ease and self-confidence that come from being part of a close-knit group of contemporaries.
Second, only children lack privacy. An only child is automatically the center of parental concern. There’s never any doubt about which child tried to sneak in after midnight on a weekday. And who will get the lecture the next morning. Also, whenever an only child gives in to a bad mood, runs into his or her room, and slams the door, the door will be opened thirty seconds later, revealing an anxious parent. Parents of an only child sometimes don’t even understand the child’s need for privacy.
Most importantly, childern get all the love; but if something goes wrong, they also get all the punishment. Moreover, an only child has no recourse when asking for a privilege of some kind, such as permission to stay out late or to take an overnight trip with friends.
Being an only child isn’t as special as some people think. It’s no fun being without friends, without privacy, and without power in one’s own home. But the child who can triumph over these hardships grows up self-reliant and strong. Perhaps for this reason alone, the hazards are worth it.
