Being an only child can be either good or bad, depending on how you perceive it and how you are brought up by your parents.
The advantages could be that you get the undivided love and attention of your parents. ~
Obviously, being an only child means that your parents have only you to spend the money on and not have to share it among other siblings.
As an only child, you may also be spared the complications arising out of having an overbearing, unhelpful, competitive sibling.
(~) Not having an older sibling to help you every step of the way may in that sense be beneficial and make you capable of looking after yourself earlier in life.
(~) When you parents are no longer around, not having a sibling to talk about things with or look up to for any kind of help or support can be quite a disadvantage.
When your parents get older, being an only child, you would have to shoulder the responsibility of taking care of your parents.
As an only child, you may also face an immense pressure put on you by your parents.
As an only child, you would also be watched with an eagle eye by your parents.
This may be quite suffocating and stressful for you.
Our world is constantly changing and new technology is gradually creeping into our everyday life.Progress is neither bad nor good taken by itself.The thing is how we use its achievements, to the better or to the worse.Or rather what effect those achievements have on us and our lives.Once rare, computers have become an inseparable part of our life.You cannot find a person in the modern world who has not heard the word «computer».They greatly influence our lives and sometimes their effect is much more intense than we realize.Our world depends on sharing information, we can even say we live in the information era, and without computers it will be impossible to get information quickly.To find something out, you will have to go to the library and read lots of books in the hope to come across the necessary information.Now it sounds like a waste of time.Through the internet you can find ads,movies and songs, news etcWhat our life will be in future if we stop using computers?We can say that in some respect life will change for the better since we will spend more time communicating with each other in real life.We will go and visit friends and relatives more often and this will have even two positive effects: first you can communicate with a real person, you can see and feel him or her, and second, you exercise a little while moving and walking somewhere.Children will play outdoors in the open air and will not sit still for hours playing computer games as they often do now.On the other hand, without computers our life will be worse.It will not be so easy to communicate any more, and if your friend lives farther than 20 km from you, it will be a problem to ever see him!A letter will reach him in four days and the news won't be that fresh any more.Well, we can continue thinking it over for a long time but from my point of view we cannot do without computers now.What we should do is to evaluate their effect on our lives and deliberately try to eliminate the negative effects found.
