They’re selfish, spoiled, and can’t share. Are these assumptions about only children true? In Politiken’s series on siblings, we explore the lives of those who grow up without them.
When Lene Bjørn was a child, it was common to have many siblings.
She actually remembers only meeting one other only child during her upbringing in a provincial town in central Jutland in the 1950s.
