I am the only child of my parents. I also wish to have a brother or sister with whom i can share everything. Having a sibling is so great fighting with them, complaning to parents and what not. I just feel very lonely here at my home. So, do you have any siblings ?

Hi! I do have sister and two brothers and all of them has their own family and children. I am more closer to my sister, maybe because we are both woman and we understand each other very well. I'm sorry to hear that feel lonely at your home, maybe sometimes you can ask your friends or cousins to spend some time with you at home, I think that would be fun.

I do have an elder sister. She has her own family now and lives in a different city.But she does visit often. It was real fun growing up. The only complaint I have is, I used to get many of her clothes handed down, to wear as a kid.:( Second hand clothes.Not fair! lol But then there is also a plus side to it. We used to share accessories. Borrow stuff and she was protective of me. I could and still can turn to her for anything at all. God bless you! :)

Yes sharing and borrowing really brings sisters or brothers more closer. Thank you for posting.

It is said that on only child is a lonely child…so I know what you feel. I am a single child too and I have a most harrowing childhood, specially since both my parents worked. It was dreadful during the holidays…staying home all alone throughout the day till my mom came back in the evening from her office. Even then, she was very tired and could hardly be active with me. at that time, I did not understand this and I used to become very angry with her and most of the days we used to have these terrible fights at home…a single child has a lot of emotions pent up inside which parents do not appreciate all the time. I had always thought that I would have more than one child…but alas, my financial condition now is such that I cannot afford it. I too have a single child, a boy of 9yrs but I remember my own childhood days and try to understand him better.

Awww... That's sad Saj123 but try not to get disappointed by it. Close friends are more like siblings, don't you have any? If not..try making some. They can't replace your blood relations but they can make you feel much much better! :-) And yes I do have a brother and 2 sisters. :)

I have one sister which is our eldest and i have 3 brothers. I am the eldest among boys. I am happy with what i have because i can play with my brothers and i can compete mentally with my our eldest sister. It is happy to feel that you have helping hand sometimes. I love being the middle although i am adjusting between the eldest and the youngest, but not yet because he is still 11 month old. we do quarreling and father is there to meddle.

I have one younger sister. I wish we were a little bit closer than what we are. She is very stubborn and completely different from me. I always wanted a big family. My husband and i have 3 kids. We are done having kids of our own but if we can afford it in the future I would love to adopt kids and give them a good home.

Yes, I have siblings. I have two sisters and one brother. My brother was very ornery as a child. He would always try to pick on us girls, and since I was the only one younger than him, I was always getting the most of it. But he has grown out of that, well almost. And he is a very loving dad with 3 girls and a boy of his only. Funny how that worked out. All four of us children are so different. Some might not even think that we could be brother and sisters because of our different ways about us. You wouldn't think that we could be, but it is amazing how different we are. Then again, maybe you know some people like that, who are very different from their brothers and sisters. Have a great day suj123!

I have a brother and a sister. Same mom and they are over 10 years older than I am. Having siblings always isnt the greatest. I never saw them and because of the life they wanted to live and treat our mom and my dad they got kicked out at a young age to go live with their father. I wish I had the joy of growing up with them. I sill keep in contact with them and it's great. My children have a good amount of siblings. I have 2 daughters and another due any day now. Then I have my stepson who in total has 5 brothers and sisters. I know how you feel about being lonely. It is hard growing up with nobody to fight and argue with.

yes i have siblings, an older sister and a younger brother. me and my sister doesn't go along very well when we're still young. we have different interests and friends. but as we grew older and more mature we became very close and always there for each other. with my brother, since i'm older than he is, i always have the tendency to protect and guide him in whatever plans he has for himself even now that we have a family of our own. i love my siblings so much so that if they get hurt i also feel their pain and proud of them if they achieve so much for themselves and their families.
