Let’s be honest for a minute: Having only one child is much easier for parents than having two or more children. Sure, many parents of single children complain that they actually have a more difficult time because the onus of entertaining the child falls entirely on the parents, but that argument can only carry so much weight. The truth is that having one child as opposed to two or more allows for a much more controlled environment, and there are also fewer relationships in the family to potentially complicate the overall family dynamic. And let’s not forget the fact that, in a single-child family, there’s only one child who can scream, cry, and have meltdowns. That must sound appealing to any living, breathing parent, right?
