Only child.....long line of only children. Both my parents were only children, I was & so was my daughter. Makes for a small family. Only family I have now is my daughter.
Growing up, somewhere early on I grasped that my dysfunctional parents wanted to keep me their baby all my life & with my very independent personality that WASN'T GOING TO HAPPEN. I put my focus on education & making something of my life. Even though it felt like they wanted to keep me their baby, there was no emotional connection felt (thus the dysfunctional parents).
I learned early on that my parents weren't capable of real problem solving so with my independent personality, I learned to solve my own problems or at least figure out what I needed to do. I grew up in an all boy neighborhood so I learned to be competitive. They were all really smart kids so that increased my competitive sense in school also.
