I will say that I think much of that is becuase i ahve a big extended family and I was with my cousins a lot. We also all had summer cottages in the same are so we spent the summers all around each other. My parents also had me involved in things and around other kids quite a bit.
I think Only children get a bad rap sometimes and there are so many great things that should be included. BUT... like i said... i think having such an extended family around me all the time madea big difference.
I also have several cousins who are only children and they have siad pretty much the same thing when asked.

I agree with you, Disneycrazed!
I love being an only child.
