    As an only child, this is so true. Everyone's saying "OH YOU DON'T WANT SIBLINGS" or "You don't wanna be like me and have siblings" or they brag and say "yeah my sibling is super cool" and it sucks, the rest is also really true

      Bro. This is the most true comment Ive read so far. It sucks. You’re always alone, always the spotlight which means MAXIMUM pressure, and everyone always making you feel bad by saying “You’re so lucky you’re an only child.” No. It sucks. Being an only child ruined me.

      I have half siblings which i rarely see. Like once every three years and 3 i havent met. My friends either say that they love their siblings and i am missing out or say that i am so lucky that i dont have siblings. They assume that i get a lot more stuff than them which is true but that is only because they spend little time with me. I may have more pocket money but i dont have what they have. A proper family. I always have so much pressure to be perfect at school which generally makes my results worse. People also dont believe i have issues at home they think my life is perfect. If they lived the same life they would realise how stressful and lonely it is. The only time i get attention is at dinner when i want to eat in silence and i have an overload as i am not used to it. I dont get why people think our life is perfect.

    As an only child, I was left alone since I was 4, and one time when I was seven, I was lying on the couch and the House alarm went off. I didn’t know what it was, but all I knew was something was wrong so I ran out the front door with only my favorite stuffed animal that I was sitting with. My neighbors called the cops. Turned out the guy who got it the house was a robber, he stole all our stuff, and lit the house on fire. My parents didn’t get home for 3 more hours. I have separation anxiety because of it.

    Omg I actually cried watching this. I have never related to a video more. Since being an only child I can no longer have nice things. I was told so much as a child that I was lucky that I couldn’t stand it and now I can’t have anything that makes me look lucky. I used to pretend to have siblings and told people I did. When I was younger and to this day I can’t go in public with both parents unless I am with a friend to make it look like I had a sibling. 😅

      But yall without siblings don't get it either. As an eldest child, the pressure is the exact same, if not worse, to do well in school and act as a perfect role model for your siblings, all the while being compared by your parents. I also get barely any alone time and my siblings and I do not get along simply due to the age gap. I love my siblings, but I'd rather be an only child

      Money is gonna be problem, everyone would favour my little sibling and forget about me, I will have to take care, my notebooks and everything will be ruined. Yeah, Id rather now just stay alone
      But trust me when you get just a bit older even as an only child you get treated more well, adultly obviously. Not all love always 🤷🏻‍♀️
      And when your sibling is old enough, you won't regret having her by your side
      I just wish j had an older sibling myself, not a baby one now that I'm old. Well, maybe I wouldn't mind that eather.

    Honestly your lucky if you have a sibling that actually hangs out with you when you're home alone bc my sibling just ignores me tbh.also everything now a days is always considered "sad or depressing" like literally every being an only child isn't that bad when you have a sibling it's not always like oH hEs So AnNoYiNg its when you have actual fights and turn you or your sibling start fighting with your parents my brother would always fight with my mom and I would just run to my room so I wouldn't hear the yelling this is basically society
    No siblings: sad
    Sibling:sad
    Not existing: ✨ NOTHING ✨
    Don't try and make everything in life seem sad
    The world will hate me someday might as well be now
    Also I understand mental health but this is not some mental health thing this is just someone who wants to make everything seem sad. This is why so many people are depressed because people like you make everything seem sad so you can make others sad so then you have a way to "vent" with others but it's just dumb and stupid your lucky your alive don't go complaining about how you don't have a sibling

      My brother only talks to me when he wants to get me problems or when he needs me, i wish i had stayed the only child

      @@FloppagworlVery sorry for your situation. In your case, your parents are the root of the problems. No father or mother should ever practice favoritism if they don’t want their kids fighting. You could be the most forgiving and selfless person but being unfairly treated by your own parents could still hurt like hell. Also, there is an option that you are just straight up exaggerating your story out of petty jealousy.

Im always stressed because of my school and my family. My parents almost never talk to me and never give me any attention. I get a lot of pressure whenever I do get attention like when it comes to grades I’m always expected by my parents to have high grades whenever I am always babysitting my little siblings and have no time for myself. I also get very annoyed of my family sometimes but whenever I’m home alone I get really happy because of the silence.

    As an only child, I feel like every single thing I do has to be pressured. My grades: have to get a B or higher, parents always comparing you to other kids, always being alone, feel like your in everything by yourself, too much attention that it gets to the point where it’s just traumatic and pressured. My mom truly loves me and wants me to be happy but at the same time I just wish I had a sibling. If your a kid rn, you understand that it feels better to talk about your personal problems to someone who is closer to your age and knows what you mean. Unfortunately, as an only child, I can’t have a chance at that type of thing. I want someone to talk to about my problems and I just don’t have anyone I trust that much other than my mom and she doesn’t understand how I feel. Literally everyone tells me “Oh My Gosh your so lucky you don’t have a sibling like they are the worst!”, when as an only child, my one wish is to have a sibling who will always be there for me as much as they don’t seem like it. As long as they are nice people, family will always be there for you through the ups and downs….

    All my friends have siblings and literally all my friends say to me’ oh your so lucky you don’t have sibling they are so annoying’ but they don’t understand. They think we get whatever we want whenever but we are always alone we are always a disappointment no matter how hard we try there is still something wrong and you have nobody to come to with advice except your parents which can be awkward sometimes for kids who would rather talk to kids their age. Lots of only child’s then grow up with a fear of public speaking and talking to new people or being alone.

    This is the perks of being the only child :
    - Parents always being overprotective since we’re the “only one.”
    - Always sticking to our phones when we get home because there’s no other things to do sometimes.
    - Being our parents therapist whenever something goes wrong with financial issues or arguments.
    - Going to be alone at some point in life when our parents will be gone.
    - Always trying to be the best and good at anything because of the pressure. Even if they’re not forcing us, we know they have silent expectations.
    - It’s going to be the parents who win all fights since your not getting defended or no one’s on your side.
    Trust me, with or without siblings there are still difficulties. We just wanted to be understood. There’s advantages and weaknesses which makes us who we are :)

    I first thought "you don't know what it's like to have siblings" but then I thought "but I love them." Even though my little brother(he's 4) is yelling a lot and he's really annoying and messy I still love him. And my little sister(she's 9) gets mad all the time and is messy and annoying I still love her. And my older sister(she's 12 and I'm 10) beats me up and says mean stuff to me and is rude to me I still love her. But I went through so much trauma and chaos because of having siblings and It made it worse to have ADHD and anxiety and insommnia and autism during it. And my mom and dad being divorced and me usually never seeing my dad and my mom being always busy I still love them. I would have been better off as an only child. But we'll I don't make those decisions.

Mostly I feel lonely and think I missed out alot of fun I could have in my childhood. Literally writing down this comment I am feeling the urge to cry. A good friend, a age mate is all you need to share your stress and sadness. Life could have Been way different for me otherwise. I am not saying that I am not loved at home, but I am just lonely mostly. My heart craves what it could never get...
    Just because I had nothing else to do, I just kept studying all the time. Again, studying isn't bad, but it must not be your personality. Result is I topped my school in grade 10, and now I am also the headgirl of my school.
