If you ask someone who grew up as an only child if they have often talked about the experience to other onlies, they’ll most probably say no, and anyway it wasn’t a problem, so it never occurred to them to talk about it! Problem or no problem, the conversation between only children about the experience of being an only child is something new and it’s good.

It’s a relief to find that others feel some of the same things. And even if our experiences were different, there is a sense of kinship between onlies, which can be surprising and most welcome.

Taking part in a BeingAnOnly event, such as the Workshop and Tapas Lunch or joining the BeingAnOnly Online Community are both unique opportunities to start or continue your conversation with those most likely to understand. Indulge your curiosity now.
