‘Tis the season to give thanks for the ones you love! In this special episode, we asked our listeners to send emails and messages telling us what they are most thankful for when it comes to their only child. We got tons of responses and dedicated a whole episode to the many positive things about being one and done. With everything going on in the world right now, we thought we would take a break from talking about the stigma surrounding having an only child and instead cover what isn’t talked about enough - how awesome it can be!

This episode is meant to provide some comfort and positivity to anyone who has dealt with negative comments or is feeling doubt about the choice they have made. Whatever decision you make about your family size, you deserve to be supported and validated.

In the pop culture segment we chat a little bit about the most positive, affirming, earnest and motivating only child on T.V., Parks and Recreation’s Leslie Knope. We cover an episode where she throws an engagement party and tries to bring her fiancé’s family together with the help of her mom and a tight-knit group of friends.
