Only Child Experience
Not everyone will understand, and Not everyone can gauge the idea, they always say being an only child is LUCKY, I always encounter people saying that word to me once they knew I'm an only child, most of my friends and classmates say being an only child you can funnel all the love and care from your parents, their attention. they can give you all your wants and needs, toys, a new shirt, new pants, money anything, that's what they say and that's what they believed, but as I say in the first paragraph not everyone will understand and can get the idea, that being an only child is so BORING and SAD.

I had many reasons why :
As my experience, I usually spend my day with myself alone, and I talk to myself alone, I do have friends but the feeling is not the same seeing other kids playing with their brothers and sisters, I remember back then when I was a kid, I usually play with my toys at home, I don't have playmates at home so I use my right hand holding the hero and my left holding the villain, making conversations with myself as a part of the play, its sad remembering those moments.
As an only child, you don't have any siblings to give you a hand whenever you are in trouble, I had bad memories where I got bullied by someone and what I did was just keep my mouth shut, I never told anyone that someone punches me in the stomach with no reason, but I always see scenes that siblings got in trouble and they always help each other back whenever someone is in trouble, I always envy the bond they make as an only child.
As a teenager being an only child, I'm a teenager now, All the chores in the house are in my hand's responsibility from washing the dishes, cooking food, washing our clothes, and cleaning the house, all responsibilities are mine because I don't have any siblings to divide the chores, I am even the one washing my mom's clothes after she got home to work because she is so busy and I understand that, After work, she goes out downtown for a tutor session just to compensate my needs as a single parent.

But to tell you honestly, I have 5 siblings but I'm the only child, sound confusing right? my parents broke up when I was 4 years old, due to misunderstanding and unreconciled problems, that's why they didn't had the chance to make another one, haha But I didn't saw my father for almost 5 years I guess but I know he already had 5 kids in his new partner in life , That's why I have 5 siblings technically in my father side.
Telling all the couples out there, if you still have the chance to make kids, make it two or three hahah kidding

Being an only child has pros and cons din talaga no. Pero may iba na mas masaya kahit ganon. Ang saddest lang sa only child is, yong wala ka manlang makalaro or matawag manlang na ate or kuya or bunso, mejo nakaka inggit sa iba kapag ganito ee.
