How so I deal with being an only child?

[lifton]

I hate it. I wish I had siblings!! I know siblings don't always get along but I atleast wish I got that chance to see. I have alot of friends but they don't compare to family. My house is always quiet I hate it. My parents are like we only wanted one perfect little child and I think that is so selfish. I wish I had a sister or a brother. My best friend has 5 siblings and they are all so close! All of my friends have siblings. I think its selfish for parents to only have one kid....they aren't thinking about us! Maybe we want a sibling to grow up with :( this has caused me major depression and I leave for college this fall and I don't want to talk to my patents ever again. I think its rude to only have one kid. I honestly just don't want anything to do with them anymore. Does anybody else feel this way?

NO WAY! are you serious?!!! I LOVE BEING AN ONLY CHILD!!! i feel soo sorry for people with siblings! okay, so i have 2 half brothers, who dont live with me, thank god! and i used to have 3 step siblings, but not anymore luckily! but i hated them!!! they made my life hell! i had to deal with stupid family time, and doing stuff i didnt want to do because my step sibling wanted to do it. and the oldest girl was a ***** to me!! and you have to share things, and you fight, and have to help them with stuff and eat the same food, and grosss!!!! being an only child makes you so much more inderpendant and smarter and just a nicer person in general. dont be sad, be happy. if i have kids i only want to have one because i dont want to put my child what i went through. all my friends are complaing like OMG i hate my brother and im like yesss i dont have to deal with that! if you have siblings you never get any time to your self. Do not call your parents selifish for having one kid, you are being selfish! only child snydrome! i do not have that though :) YOU ARE CRAZY!!! not all familys are close. you get all the attention, i bet if you ahve 5 siblings you would be like OMG i hate my life f*ck my family!!
