Are we wrong to be one and done?

Before I had my little boy, I always wanted 2 to 3 kids.When our kid turned 1 we started considering trying for a second (we're in our mid 30s and we wanted them to be born close together) but weren't certain enough to actually try. He's 2y4m now and we are 99.9% sure we don't want a second and here are our reasons: 1. This one is too wonderful, we love him so much that we don't want him to have to share our attention, love or stuff and we just want to give him and only him everything that we have and that we are. 2. He is also exhausting, he has the energy of a thousand horses and the curiosity of a thousand cats. 3. The only help we have is from my very annoying, self-righteous and overbearing MIL (my mom and FIL passed away about 10 years ago, my dad is a piece of shit and we don't want him near our family).But of course, people, especially MIL and even close friends, have been judgy about our decision and trying to convince us that it's easier when there are two of them because they play together, that this one will become selfish if he's an only child (I personally think this argument is complete bullshit), that "it's not right to leave him with no one else in the world" and many other similar arguments that try to guilt us into having a second child.Now, my husband and I are 100% on the same page about this, neither of us has any doubts but in our country, having one child by choice is pretty rare, it's usually two or more and I'm culturally wired to think that 2+ is what's "normal" and tbh people's comments are starting to get to me. So basically I just want to hear from other people who only have one child, did they turn out to be bad or selfish people BECAUSE they didn't have a sibling (yes, ridiculous, I know, but idk), do you regret your decision, would you change it if you could? I know what I want, but is it selfish of me and am I going to deprive my child of something that he might wish he had later? via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/3zcSS8i
