'Spoilt', 'indulged' and 'selfish' are the words often used to describe the behaviour of only children. But is it time for us to start thinking a bit more about the particular challenges facing only children and particularly adult only children?
This weekend, a conference called 'Only Child, A Unique Inheritance', is being held in West Sussex to encourage adult only-children to talk about their experiences. The Director of "Being an Only", Ann Richardson, who has organised the conference, and Baroness Jill Pitkeathley co-author of The Only Child; How to Survive Being One join Jenni to share their experiences of being an only child.
Conference 'Only Child: A Unique Inheritance 2006', 2nd - 3rd September 2006 at Earnley Concourse educational centre near Bracklesham Bay, Chichester, West Sussex.
