Being An Only Child Makes You A Weirdo. Jeff Scheen - Full Special 

Lol thanks for pointing that out. I thought it was so odd NOBODY else was an only.

😊😊

​@@tere898 I'm from Utah and I still thought it was weird 😂

Ing utah Growing up with a family of 4 it was considered really small. My dad was raised with 9 other siblings and mom had 3. And we had 2 lol

😂😂😂

Well it is Utah. He should research the location. 🤣

​@@MasterMalrubius it worked in his favor. Awe, alone AGAIN? heh

He just put out an hour long special!!!!

Which story? Getting hit by a car?

​@@acidwizard6528yeah I assume that one.

The weird doom feeling as you lose consciousness is 🤌

Cool to see a huge fan of comedy appreciating jeff.

It's so much easier to be an only child when you're part of a large family that you see regularly! Totally different experience, agreed.... it's like having siblings, but you don't get sick of eachother, and you don't have to share your toys in the evenings.

Hi fellow only child who also didn't have kids! I loved it as well. Three's a crowd if you ask me!

OMG so many names to remember. And I really don't have much in common with most of these people, much less my husband these days 😂@@invictaland1983

You’re all fine.

Same!

Can I ask how old you are now? Do you have trouble falling asleep? I’m a new mom of a 2 year old and I worry we won’t be having another child due my declining patience, lol. But I do wonder about her being an only child and if it will affect her long term.

​​@@kylorenthehusky2584I have several co-workers who are the only child and they all have said it was wonderful, no one to share with or fight and got all the attention.

I had a sibling and slept with my parents off and on till I was 12 or maybe older…

She will outgrow it. It is harder to deal with the fallout of making her sleep alone when she's not ready, than to provide a safe spot for her when she feels vulnerable at night. ​@@kylorenthehusky2584

@@kylorenthehusky2584 There is no evidence that only children are any less well-adjusted or successful than those with siblings, more or less lonely, or have other social issues comparatively. I watched a video the other day with a woman who said she had 7 siblings but grew up feeling lonely and alone because she wasn't like her siblings (different appearance and interests, but definitely related to them). You can grow up with siblings you love or ones you hate. You can have none and wish you did, or be happy being singular. It's really up to who your kid is fundamentally as a person, not their circumstances. I grew up with two siblings and I do love them, but I'd have been equally happy having grown up alone. I'm an introvert and don't miss having people around me when I'm alone. It's better to choose what is best for you and your partner/spouse, than to make the decision according to what you think your kid might prefer. Whatever you decide, show a kid love and kindness, and they'll probably grow up to say they had a happy childhood. :)

Can confirm 😂😅😂

Screw that. You got a job? Buy one anyway. Don't let anyone stand in the way of your dreams - not even your husband. Lol.

Get him a bunkbed for Christmas

We used a loft bed to fullfill my childhood top bunk fantasies. It had a desk underneath. I have an older brother but he was a way older teen at the time

@@sachagilley2315 we compromised and built a blanket fort. 😋

Same here and I’m 40 haha

Kid has a future in comedy for sure.

I’m an only child and I had bunk beds and I feel your pain

I grew with only one sibiling and trust me you are not missing on anything by being the only child. No fights, no comparisons, no sharing....

@@edithdlp8045 yeah, but also had no parents. Dad left when 2, mom left when I was 7.

At least it was bunk beds. Only child with 2 twin beds...🙃

It does give you extra space to put things. I had a sister, but when we got older, I had the bunk bed in my room. I slept on the top and had room for stuff on the bottom.

Same. My parents divorced when I was 13 and my father wasn't really there even prior to that. So up until I was 13 I would play board games alone and after 13 celebrating holidays got super awkward lol

@@RhythmAddictedState I used to have to play board games by myself too! One of my sons had just 1 child & I really hope she never feels as lonely as I was.

@@Saintly2 I personally didn't feel particularly lonely as I learnt to entertain myself without needing someone else. I only had two friends too. Maybe that's just me being an introvert? I do think that's one of the positives of being an only child with one parent - you learn how to be by yourself and keep yourself company. The downside is when your emotional needs aren't being met because your parents aren't emotionally available or simply are absent. On the other hand, I have a cousin who has always been very extroverted and who is also an only child (his parents are still together though). He would say "I'm bored!" out loud, which I never understood. How can you ever be bored? He had a lot of toys, consoles - you name it - and even with all that he would proclaim how bored and lonely he was 😂

You are lucky to have just one parent😅 I always wanted to have just one!😅

​@@RhythmAddictedStateWe are all different. I barely ever feel bored, unless I am with boring people, but I do feel lonely sometimes, and I felt very lonely all my childhood and most of adulthoods. You can't help what you feel I guess

What?

Ewe why would you say that!

Ew why would you write that?!

For the commenters - listen to the whole video before making a comment.

@@blankenmom those people are the reason we can’t have nice things.

I see clips of people doing weird things like fitting their entire body through a toilet seat or flip coins with their nose or whatever and think "that guy's an only child. No other excuse for that" 😂

That's an insane story. My sister got hit before, and like 10 min later got hit again but I guess it evened her out. She didn't see a doctor either. Maybe siblings would've made that go faster.

That’s crazy. My younger brother got ran over (literally) by a pickup while riding his bike a few years ago. His bike was twisted in half, so we were all confused how he came out with minimum injury. The driver panicked and took off. A city bus driver that saw what happened followed him into a dead end street and made him come back to the scene, which was full of cops by then. The driver was a 21 year old kid who then got hit with reckless endangerment, hit and run, and a few other charges. We took the bike to a local bike shop to get an estimate for insurance and upon seeing the bike and hearing what happened, his first question is “is your brother still alive?” He couldn’t believe so much damage could be caused to the bike and the person on it possibly survived

​@@sammyb861angels 😇

Yeah, that’s a lesson I’m learning from texting my half sister…she’s 13 years older & we’ve never met face to face. 😵‍💫

It's been just me and my daughter for years and I definitely consider us a family!! It only takes two ❤
