New Study

A new study has revealed that children raised without siblings are mentally healthier and happier. Scientists from China examined several thousand individuals aged 18 to 30, comparing those raised as only children with those who had siblings. The results showed that only children in the family have better mental health, are smarter, more creative, more satisfied with their lives, less impulsive, and less dependent on others' approval. Scientists explain this by noting that children without siblings do not have to share with anyone. They receive all resources and attention from their parents. As a result, they experience less stress in their lives and achieve their goals faster, which fosters emotional control, confidence, and independence.
