your brother is at an age where he doesnt really know how to control him self at 11 years old they are very child minded he is at 11 years old,dont tell him to much because he will tell,try to get into some things that he likes and start off slowly then get him to eventually open up to you and get him to tell you at least one secret mum can never find out then you can rest assured and he can rest assured that you have his confidence and eventually you will be able to trust him you have to play his game and play reverse phsycology on him

I never wanted a brother or sister, I felt special because my parents just had me to love. As an adult I somethimes find parties/gatherings difficult, feeling as though I don't know how to behave in groups of people.  \n\nFriends of mine have an only child, an outgoing, bubbly ten-year old. She has daily interaction with other children in her street, sees her grandparents often, and has friends over to stay. Her parents involve her in everything they do, and spend a lot of time with her.\n\nI would say that an only child will learn many positives (happy in own company, used to talking to adults etc.) but you must make sure that they see a lot of their friends, and also spend time with children of different ages, so that they learn how to play as they would in a bigger family.

Well, first of all it's not really too late but it does get harder as your body gets older. The problem is at this age they would be very far apart and probably not have a lot in common. Now about him being lonely there is no reason for you to feel guilty or remorse. Having a sibling has it's advantage but it also has it's disadvantages. There is no rule on how many children you should have. I think as long as you raise him well he will be fine and well adjusted. There is nothing wrong with having only one child and in many ways it can be a benefit for exactly the reasons you stated ie. you have more time just for him, you can concentrate on him and his needs, you will have more money to send him to college or get him the things he needs. The truth is if he has been an only child for this long he might well resent having another child in the picture. I know my sister did and still sort of does LOL and we're only 2 years apart. Don't worry too much I think he'll be just fine, obviously he has a mother who cares about his well being very very much and that is the most important part about growing up.

He had an older brother who died before he was born.  His brother's name was also John.  From what I understand he used his brother's birth certificate to fool them into think he was 25, when in reality he was only 18 at the time.

I know my parents love me and my two siblings equally. Being the eldest, i guess they were fond of me a 'bit' more..ofcourse i dont question them. When i was a kid i used to feel awkward at the thought of my mom and dad sharing their love with this little sister i had..but now over the years, i have realised that it is very very difficult for parents to differentiate between children they have made..who came from them..\n\nBut i do often use it as an excuse to get their attention sometimes..that she loves my sis and my bro more than me (and ofcourse i know that isnt true)..

Sometimes that happens with siblings. Maybe you should try to talk your differences out. Maybe they feel the same about you. Communication is the key.

You are correct, everything has a gravitational pull on every thing else.  Your brother however is not.  ther must have been other contributing factors like th A&#92;C.

Even though i am the only child i have seen a lot of sisters and brothers and from my experience i know that most of them fight when they are young and later on learn to appreciate one another. I guess its just a matter of growing up and seeing what's important in life. Of course any kind of relationship is hard work, be it love relationship or brotherly love. If you want to have a good relationship with your sister learn to appreciate her, trust her and most importantly love her and always try to be there for her... All the best for the future... :)

Well, this is sorta like a question I had but not really. All I could say is just tell them what is going on and try to take it from there. It is a whole different story if the one brother is a man who likes to control.\n    Just try to talk it out with them!\nGOOD LUCK!\n       Tina
