     To be sure, only children experienced some things differently from those with sisters and brothers.

Many feel more pressure to succeed. They also tend to look only to their parents as role models in the

absence of brothers and sisters.

     In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny minority of only children.

Among other things, the group does volunteer work to counter (反对) the myth that they are not

responsible. "People think we're treated too kindly and ruined," says Sankpal, a computer engineering

students. "But I'd like to remind them how lonely it can get."

     Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for

aging, unhealthy parents. Britain's David Emerson, co-author of the book The Only Child, says that such

a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from

experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elder mother from their family home, where she

was vulnerable (易受攻击的)to house breakers, to a new one with more security. "The move was quite

hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it," he says. "After all, I am left with that

responsibility."

     In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers

increasing, many families are finding they simply don't have the time, money or energy to have more than

one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against

them is unjust.
