Without siblings to play with them, ONLY children are perceived to be lonely and incapable of forming loving relationships. They tend not to follow instructions since they often have things their way. Am ghastly reminded again. BIG sigh. =(
In contrary, parenting an only child is a luxury, at least to me.
I truly enjoy the experience of parenthood without totally waving goodbye to my social life.
Shopping, partying, facial, mahjong, hibernating - they are still my second, third or even forth best friend till now.
And we have the lavishness of buying the nicest clothes, mouth-watering food, bizarre toys, and utmost pay out insurance for Xavier. Without feeling a pinch.
You would be strikingly smart to grasp that I am transferring my guilt away.
Yes, am certainly.
Not that we are not planning for a second one, its way too traumatize for me.
Mental stress plus "physical burden". C'mon, putting on a good 22kg in 10 months ain't a joke!
I came a long way.
Now that I have shed off 15kg, I am not accustomed to it.
Stagnation makes me feel agonized and demoralize; however I am not whitewashed.
I would have long given up when I was 80kg, thank God for darling.
He was, or rather, he is always there for me, relentlessly. My pillar of support, my tower of happiness.
Too much of a drift, back to the initial topic, only child.
Was advised by my pediatric that as long as the parents shows good behavioral paradigm of sharing, caring, the kid would probably grow up that way.
In fact, only children are more giving, as they never had to fight with their siblings to protect their things! =D Also, they often relate well to adults, as they are used to it from young.
This, experts believe, make my only child a good listener, and more self-assured and confident!
Ah ah, its all by the experts, nothing from me.
Its not a self praise, as I am blatantly cognizant that it is an international disgrace to do that.
But who knows, you could well be receiving our "red eggs" in 10 months time. =P
