Everyone thinks that being an only child isn’t a good thing. That’s because it’s seen as lonely and having no one to share your childhood with might be a bit sad. On the other hand, some kids are fine with having siblings as long as they get to be the youngest of the bunch. It appears that being the youngest means receiving the highest tolerance level not only from parents but from other people as well. However, this is not always the case.
Apparently, there are kids who are not so happy about getting a new sibling at all and it’s these kids that want to remain the apple of mom and dad’s eye! So we’ve compiled a list of 50 of these kids that make it very obvious in their photos that they clearly never wanted to have a sibling!
1. This one’s for you, baby brother.
This child’s hand gesture for her newborn brother is totally cringe-worthy. We hope it’s not intentional because if it is, her little brother is in some serious trouble!
Discovering that you are about to be a big sister may be a bit concerning at first, but eventually they get over it. But for this little girl who only found out that her Mom’s pregnant with another baby, being a big sister is not something she wants to live with! Why else would she think of packing all her things and running away?
This family of five is expecting another addition and it’s safe to say that the parents are happy about it but their girls are not. Their eldest is even holding a chalkboard that perfectly sums up the kids’ emotions when the photo was taken!
Apparently, some kids have violent reactions after realizing that they are not the youngest child anymore. They still are not capable of controlling their emotions and when they are mad about having a younger sibling they definitely show their angst!
5. When knowledge about being the middle child finally hits you
Some of us do not accept the reality of things until we finally see a visible proof of the change that is about to come to our lives. This child’s face sums up the the feelings one get when reality finally sets in.
This little girl probably could not imagine having a sibling until she finally saw her baby brother! She looks so terrified!
7. When you hold something so tiny
Everyone who has not held an infant before can relate to this child’s reaction when he held his newborn sibling. His silly expression is just like the rest of us!
8. When you realize you’re not an only child anymore
They might say that being an only child is sad, but it can also have some perks, too. Can you just imagine the pain of losing your exclusive right over toys and parental attention just because one little human came along in your family?
9. When you don’t want to put up with the fact that you’re not the only child anymore
At first, this young boy tried to rock his little sibling just like how a good big brother should. But he looks like he got fed up after a while and decided to just throw everything out in the open, and that includes his little brother!
10. When fate doesn’t let you get what you want
As if finding out that you’re not gonna be an only child is not enough, this little girl even discovers that she’s having a baby brother instead of a baby sister! That’s one unlucky strike after another and this kid just couldn’t take it anymore!
11. Someone’s not happy with the pregnancy test result
This little girl just found out that she’s going to be a sister! However, she does not find the fact amusing at all. In fact. realizing that she will have to share everything with another brought her to tears!
Now this is what we call utter humiliation. This child feels so bad about having to be evicted from her beloved crib that she could only bawl her eyes out in response to her eviction notice!
13. This is not happening
This boy’s reaction is exactly how a person feels when they are trying to deny the truth. He looks like someone who’s internally convincing himself that the fact that he’s now an older child is not happening when the very proof is right in his tiny hands!
14. I’m not happy with it
This little girl’s Mom was about to deliver her sibling when this photo was taken. Clearly, this young gal is not happy about how things are unfolding in their family.
15. Not really glad about this change
Here’s another little girl who’s clearly unhappy about the fact that she’s now a big sister! She’s not as excited as the other people in the photo.
Okay, so this little girl has a baby sister now, but she does not look happy at the slightest. Her sad expression is totally relatable but absolutely hilarious as well!
17. Scratch that, please!
If only erasing the words on the chalkboard can erase the true happenings in this child’s life, then he would probably be happy. But, of course, scratching those words does not make any difference at all and so, he cries.
18. Not the youngest anymore
Have you ever had a moment where everyone in your family is happy about something except yourself? This child seems to be experiencing that very same moment and we can totally see how unhappy she is.
19. This child’s crestfallen reaction
For a child, finding out that you don’t get to enjoy your parent’s full attention is something that is nothing short of terrifying. Maybe that’s why this little girl has such a crestfallen look as she held her little sister.
20. This isn’t fun at all.
This little girl is not having fun with everything that’s happening to her life at all. Who wants to be a big sister anyway? Definitely not this girl.
21. When you realize that you’re going to be a big sister
Who’s happy about being a big sister? I’m pretty sure it’s not this little girl. That’s exactly the look of someone who’s annoyed about something and in this case, it’s about her not being the only child anymore!
22. Before and after news of having a new baby
Can you see the huge difference in this tiny girl’s reaction before and after she knew that she was going to be a big sister? She looked really happy one minute and quite miserable the next. She must really hate having a sibling then!
Seeing this girl’s reaction as she held her newborn sibling totally creeps me out. If I were this child’s parent, I won’t trust her enough to leave the baby alone with her. The look in her eyes is full of hate!
24. This child’s to-do list that made her cry out loud
Having a to-do list is not bad. But, if your to-do list includes becoming a big sister when you are a kid who just wants to be an only child, then you probably will also cry your eyes out just like this little girl.
This little gal is probably not able to speak clearly yet, but her reaction when she found out that she’s going to be a big sister definitely says it all! Poor future big sister.
26. This little girl’s reminder for everyone
When there is a little baby on the way, it can’t be helped that the first born is affected in such a way that she think she’s being forgotten because another child will be added to the family. In these cases, parents should be more careful in making their eldest child understand about the change and that nobody is forgotten just because there is a new member of the family.
27. “Only Child” pass about to expire
I can say that this is one way of looking at things. Of course being an only child means getting all of your parent’s attention and having another child to share it with is something that most children won’t like. But we need kids to remember that when they become big brothers or sisters, their parents attention may be divided but their love only multiplies to accommodate more.
28. Someone’s against the fact that Mommy is having another baby
This kid is so against the fact that his Mom is about to give birth to baby number two. However, it’s something he can’t do nothing about! That makes it all more frustrating, I guess.
29. This child’s emotional reaction
We can all understand that having to adjust from being an only child to the eldest child can be quite a challenge. However, this child’s highly emotional reaction just takes it to the next level! We totally feel you, kid.
30. He must have had a good laugh
This is when you were barely cool with having one sibling and then you found out that you are about to have two! Our plans don’t really matter when God’s hands are at work.
31. This little girl’s silent reminder
Of course, having another child does not mean that parents will leave no more time for their eldest. This only means that parents are now ready to make more room for another little human to love!
32. Only Child expiring January 2013
It’s true that when a child is about to become a big brother or sister, the title “only child” will no longer apply to him or her. However, there is no need for kids to be sad about this change because it is so much more fun when you have someone to share your childhood with!
33. “What I prayed for was a puppy”
God knows what you want before you know it, kids. So, if He gave you a baby brother instead of a puppy, that must mean that having a baby brother is what you really need and what will make you happy! Trust Him when he changes your plans because God’s plans for you are always the best.
34. This artistic display of affection
If this is a display of affection for her little sister, then I don’t know what a display of hate would look like! It’s definitely a hilarious scene and we can only imagine the laughter and utter shock of these kids’ parents when they saw what happened when they left them alone for a few minutes!
35. Can’t accept this fact
If you’re an only child and you’re about to have a sibling in a few month’s time, you probably will feel really sad about having to share everything with the newcomer in your family. But, remember that this is not the only side of having a sibling! You can have someone with whom you can share laughter and your childhood with. And that is something that’s even more fun than having everything to yourself.
36. Another eviction notice
This adorable future big brother could not help but shed tears when he got this eviction notice from the “Department of Family Planning”. It’s a big change, yes, but it’s something that you should be happy about little one!
37. Someone doesn’t want siblings!
Wow, that’s quite a reaction from this little lady. It looks like her parents need a lot of explaining to do before this girl finally accepts the fact that she’s going to be a big sister soon!
38. She’s not happy about it.
We can totally tell in this photo who’s happy to have a sibling and who’s not. That frown is absolutely hard to miss!
39. This baby who looks so lost
Being a big brother is not easy especially if you are just learning to walk yourself! This little guy looks like he doesn’t talk straight yet and now he has to deal with being a big brother? Life is just no fair sometimes.
40. Having a little brother makes you want to cringe
When everyone in the family is all about wanting to cuddle the adorable little baby, there is one person who does not want to hold the baby at all. Who is this person? His big brother!
41. This is not what I wanted from Santa!
Kids look forward to Christmas because they can wish for anything and “Santa” gives them what they wished for. However, this kid who recently became a big brother is not so happy at all when he got a little sister instead of his Christmas present!
This kid is not so happy about having a little brother. He does this thing every single time and makes sure that everyone sees him doing it.
43. Wow, look how excited they are…not
We can’t really tell the reason behind these boys’ tears. Are they tearful out of so much joy because they are having a sister, or they are simply sad that they are going to have another member of the family.
The look in this child’s face is nothing but utter confusion. What is happening here? Why do I have this little being in my lap and why is Mom insisting on having us sit this way? Here’s the thing little one: you are officially a big sister now and this is what big sisters do.
45. Someone’s not happy about the new addition to the family
Although big brother is happy about their baby sister, big sister is not really a fan of having her. She’s jealous and that’s quite evident, but we also know that they will eventually get along like all sisters do.
This big brother looks like someone who’s not understanding everything that’s happening around him at all. He looks quite confused about the baby!
47. Can we give her back?
Apparently, a baby brother or sister is not someone that you can give back. You may find it hard to accept him or her at first, but I bet you’ll surely love having them around as you grow older together.
48. The first time you saw your sibling
Babies fresh from delivery look really weird because coming out of the womb is not exactly a pretty thing to begin with. This girl saw her baby brother for the first time and we can’t help but imagine her as she thinks about how babies are supposed to be cute and yet, she saw just how weird his little brother looks like!
49. This terrified big sister
Holding a baby is not exactly the easiest thing despite the infant’s tiny frame. This girl is just like the rest of us when it comes to having the horrors of handling a baby for the first time.
50. Am I supposed to be happy about this?
This little girl who recently became a big sister is neither happy about having a sibling, nor does she look mad about it. She’s clearly impassive and it’s what made this photo funny and unforgettable!
Having a little brother or a sister when you’ve always been an only child is definitely a major change. However, it is not something that kids should be sad about. In time, these children will surely appreciate having one another in their lives and it is the most beautiful thing ever. Knowing that someone loves you unconditionally and has your back whenever is definitely a blessing that not every family gets so be thankful and appreciate sibling love.
