A common societal belief suggests that having only one child can lead to increased burdens and potential emotional challenges. However, recent studies present a different perspective, showing that only children may actually be healthier and happier than those with siblings.

A comprehensive study conducted in China compared the mental health of single children with those who have siblings. The research, conducted by the University of Macau, analyzed data from 113 studies involving 2.4 million people. The findings revealed that the risk of mental health issues, such as stress, anxiety, and OCD, was higher in families with multiple children.

In contrast, children without siblings performed better in IQ tests and academic subjects. Researchers believe this is largely due to the increased attention and resources parents can devote to their only child. The study suggests that while long-term educational differences may vary, the care and focus received during early childhood has lasting benefits.

A similar study conducted in America involving 3,221 29-year-olds supported these findings, showing that only children are equally or even more content compared to those with siblings.

These studies challenge long-held views, indicating that being an only child may offer unique advantages in both mental health and cognitive development.
