This is a case of "be careful what you wish for." There will be days when an only child will be delighted not to have to fight out a crucial decision with siblings. She can make a decision and be comfortable with it. There will be days when a person with a passel of siblings will feel grateful that he doesn't have to shoulder the grief alone. He'll have the support of siblings. So there will be days of gratitude to balance out the days of envy.

 

Acceptance of what is comes first. Then you can look for solutions to your unique situation.
