Only Child = Unintended Child in The Family

 

A lot of people tend to think that ONLY CHILD is always being pampered by their family. Actually, there are Only Child who are actually unintended child in the family. The parents "created" the child accidentally due to failure of proper planning when having sex. That is why, there is no siblings, because the parents do not want a child at all.

The child will grow up being treated as unwanted even if the parents take care of them. Taking care of them is like having no choice and having to be responsible instead of showing love to the child.

The situation will be even worse when the parents relationship turns sour. The child will be always blamed by the parents. "If not because of you, we won't get married", "If not because of you, I would not want to be with your father/mother".

Actually, it is causing the child pain. In a long-run the child will feel guilty. Then fell useless. This will cause the child to turn into depression and will leads to suicidal thoughts.

Adults must accept responsibility for their own actions, and if they are not ready to have a child, they should try to control their sexual desire or engage in safe sex. Don't cause a human being to be born and suffer throughout their childhood.
