There are upsides and downsides to growing up with siblings or being an only child – as with everything in life, there’s not a “better,” just a “different.”
If you’re someone who grew up with at least one sibling, though, these posts are going to come with a strong dose of nostalgia (and maybe a few memories that will revive some old grudges from your childhood, too).
