I don't know. That news sounds pretty disturbing to me.

I'm an only child and I got along with kids just fine.

hmmm, I'm an only child and I sort of agree, when I first started school I wasn't too keen on the whole idea of "sharing", I made friends pretty easily, but it was a huge adjustment having other kids around. However, I was lucky in that I had my cousins (anywhere from 4 to 10 years older than me) to learn interaction skills from. I think it depends on how much how much of an effort parents make to not isolate their only child.

I'm not an only child, and my social skills are those of a ****ing tree. I don't agree with this at all.

Loserrrr. :rolleyes:

And this thread should be deleted, i just reported it.

That is a crock. I was an only child until I was 9 and I kicked arse in early elementary school. I doubt I was out of the norm either.

I don't know. I had 6 siblings and for years I was very shy and afraid of people. Maybe because I didn't get enough attention? LOL Anyway these "studies" have their flaws. One thing that I do believe is that having siblings makes one less self absorbed and self important. I survived!:lol:

So it's ok for you to call someone a loser? What right do you have? NONE. Geez, can't you lay off people once and for all?
maybe there wouldn't be a problem if you would LIGHTEN UP.

List of jokes you've taken seriously-

- AKA's Ticondufmsdbd pencil thread
- Brian's 'disturbing news' article
- Me saying "loserrrr" which wasn't directed to anyone whatsoever

is all i can think of

Seems like you're trying to start a fight, and it's not going to work. I"m not going to argue with you, because it's not worth it.
I'm not trying to argue with you, i'm just saying that you take everything too seriously.

Why did you report the thread? The initial post in the thread doesn't violate any rules. Were you reporting the smart aleck replies to the first post? Some people had smart aleck replies to the first post that were unnecessary. All I was doing was posting a news story and making it clear that it wasn't "offensive" and people just had to comment on that instead of leaving it well enough alone

Add that to my list.

I'm an only child and I'm a little quiet in crowds. I'm better one on one. I was around adults at a very young age so I feel more comfortable around adults. It got better as I got older. Sometimes I feel being an only child robs a person of childhood because they're around adults so much at a young age and think that a lot of people their own age are immature. I had always felt that way in school. The only grade in school I ever enjoyed was grade 12. I felt thrilled when I realized everyone was finally being treated as adults.

That's how I grew up. I was the only kid in my whole family until I was almost 9. And sometimes, growing up, I thought I was so much more mature than my friends and classmates. Now I think just the opposite. :lol:

She didn't report it; she was joking.
