Is it better to grow up in a small family or in a big family? Nowadays more people tend to have only one child or not to have children at all. Apparently is because some people don't have much time, because they are concerned and focused on their careers, I mean they don't want to have such a big responsibility. Growing up in either small or big family have advantages and disadvantages. Naturally the majority of people who grew up in a big family think it is better grow in a small family and so on. In my opinion children from bigger families are more sociable and the best thing about growing up in a big family is getting support with your brothers and sisters, you will never feel alone. On the other hand, probably a big family have financial problems, because is expensive to have many kids. So, the parents must to work more and the time for the children get less. The advantage of growing up in a small family is that parents can spend more time and money with their child, who can enjoy full attention of parents, but the most difficult aspect of being a only child is feeling loveless, don't having a sibling to play with regularly and to be able to share your thoughts and memories. Anyway, it's better to be in a big family because if you in trouble you can have help of them and you can help them, in addiction you'll always have your siblings close.
