Overview
Discover why having one child is not only a preferred family size, but also a most enriching path to creating a thriving, happy family.
Drawing from groundbreaking new research and interviews with over 100 families, renowned psychologist Susan Newman, Ph.D. dismantles the outdated myths about only children while providing a roadmap for confident parenting decisions. Whether you're contemplating your family's size or already raising an only child, this authoritative guide addresses the most pressing concerns:
- Is one child right for me? Am I being selfish?
- No sibling: Am I cheating my child?
- What are the benefits of being an only child?
- Why the "selfish, lonely only" stereotypes no longer hold up
- How to raise a well-adjusted, compassionate only child
- Is caring for aging or ill parents too much for one child?
More and more families are embracing the solo child with little to no pressure from family and friends to have another. The one-child family has become desired in the U.S. and worldwide in developed countries. China, England, Korea, France and Canada have already been labeled “one-child nations.”
Just One explores the striking changes in cultural norms and personal challenges driving the popularity of the one-child family: from women starting families older and the high cost of raising children to women wanting to work and climate change concerns.
Written by one of America's leading parenting experts who has been featured in Psychology Today, The New York Times, and NPR, Just One offers evidence-based strategies for nurturing competent, independent only children. This timely guide speaks to a new generation of parents who are redefining what makes a perfect family size.
