Independence in only child
We are OAD and while my daughter is generally a great kid, I’m worried we’ve made a bit of a monster choosing to do things for her because it’s more efficient/less of a battle to just do them ourselves. She’s almost 6 now and I find myself worrying that she should be more independent and if she’d had a little brother or sister she would have had to learn how to do more things herself because we would be occupied with a baby. I love being able to give her all my attention but I would like her to take a bit more responsibility for herself 😅
Have any other OADers experienced this and have any tips?
