In a survey about the acceptance of a sibling, most of my classmate say yes. They are very glad to have a companion at home, with which they will no longer feel lonely. In addition, learn to offer help to others can also benefit them. However, the few who say no is afraid that their parents would love them less whether they had a sibling.As for me, if I have a younger brother or sister at home, his life will be full of happiness. For one thing, a little child is a great fun and I can play with him or her cheerful. For another, I will share my life an intimate friend. How nice it is to grow up with a sibling!。
