How many siblings do you have?

[mvd]

Poll question: How many siblings do you have?

I'm an only child.

[djeseru]

1. An only of an only who has an only.

It's culture shock for us when we're in the midst of a large family gathering. =)

[mvd]

4. I liked being an only child as a kid, but now..

I believe it would have been nice to have a sibling. You can't get the full picture as a kid sometimes.

9. Oh yeah and...

...my mom always knew who to "talk" to when something was broken or missing. *sigh* But I have enjoyed my brothers-in-law...I was the first female to join their ranks. It's been an interesting experience!

2. Six, but I feel like an only child ...

... cause my closest sib is 8 years older than me.

All of them are about 18 months apart, then an 8 year gap, then me - the menopausal oops. :blush:

[Trigger Hippie]

3. Only child.

And I wish I wasn't. I'd love to have brothers and sisters. :(

5. One of each

both older.

6. Only child here.

Sometimes I wish I had siblings, and sometimes I am really glad I don't.

7. only girl in six children

second oldest; my elder brother (by 11 months) passed away in November

8. # 4 of 5 kids!

[asjr]

10. One and one-half

Full sister half-brother

[goddess40]

15. 2 and one half

a brother, a sister and a half brother

[yewberry]

11. I need an "Other" category.

I have one brother, one half-sister, one stepbrother, one common-law stepbrother and one common-law stepsister. They are all married and so there are in-laws galore there.

I am also married, so I have a brother-in-law and a sister-in-law on my husband's side.

Definitely "Other."

14. I wish I had an "other" option

Some families really do have 10 or more kids, so I thought others could post.

[trof]

12. Only with an only who is trying to decide

if her's will be an only too.

[trackfan]

13. I hit 3 by mistake; meant to click 4

There is nothing in my life that has been more of a plus, than coming from a big family.

[deadparrot]

16. Just one...

my baby brother. :)

[Left Is Write]

17. I have four siblings - two older, two younger. Three sisters, one brother.

[billyskank]

18. Ein Bruder; er ist drei und zwanzig jahre alt.

[youthere]

28. Hey! I actually understood that!

High school German actually pays off!

[LeftyMom]

19. I have one sister, onlies are welcome to borrow her.

Really, you need to have the spoiled little sister experience for at least a few days just to know what you're not missing.

[scarlet_owl]

20. I have two sisters.

Technically, one of them is a "half-sister".

[progmom]

21. one little brother

:)

Well, he's 6'4", but I still think of him as little.

[CBHagman]

22. Five, but only four are living.

We're steps and halves, too, as my Irish neighbor used to say (i.e., a blended family, with half-siblings and step-siblings).

[jmm]

23. Sounds like my family

I have anywhere between 0-11 siblings depending on how you look at it. I've only lived with one of them. Whenever I'm asked I instinctively say two because I'm only close to two of them.

[knowbody0]

24. 6, second to the oldest, a boy

i am female and consider my childhood slavery

[Kathleen04]

[youthere]

27. I'm the youngest of 7...

Four boys, three girls.

[Bunny]

29. 5 brothers, 1 sister.

I'm right in the middle.
