Siblings. Lots of us have 'em. Lots of us don't. The latter situation is often quite common in fiction, leading to a lot of only children running around. But some fictional only kids (especially younger ones) are not happy with the situation. Maybe they're lonely because they have no one to play with. Maybe they're frustrated because they have no one to push around. Maybe they just see a lot of other kids with siblings in real life and are just envious. Whatever way, they know what they really want: A younger sibling, and they aren't afraid to ask their parents for one. Their parents are generally less thrilled about this, because even if they also want another child, they're not keen on telling their kid where said baby is going to come from. Alternatively, if the parents are no longer able to conceive, they may decide to adopt to satisfy their child's request. Most of the time, kids will express a desire for a sibling of the same gender as them (i.e., girls generally want sisters while boys generally want brothers), but the opposite isn't unknown: sometimes, boys want sisters in an attempt to purposefully invoke Big Brother Instinct while tomboyish girls will want brothers...and not-so-tomboyish ones want living dolls. In works with a fantastic bent, this may be a cue for a younger sibling to suddenly come into the picture through supernatural or superscience-y means. In less-fantastic works, it's often up in the air whether the kid gets their sibling or not. Nor is there any guarantee that, should they get their wish, they and their new sibling will get along the way the older one dreamed. Compare I Want Grandkids (for when it's the parents' parents doing the pushing), Resentful Outnumbered Sibling (who might want another sibling to balance out the gender ratio). This is also Truth in Television, which is probably why it shows up often enough. |

In Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten, Desco and Des X were created by Mad Scientist Genjuro Kazamatsuri to fulfill his daughter Fuka's wish for a little sister...with advanced functionality to help her Take Over the World. The results were somewhat mixed — while Desco quickly grows to adore Fuka and wants to help her take over the world Des X grew violently jealous of her sisters and murdered them so she could have their father's full attention. This is how Fuka and Desco ended up in the Netherworld. | |

In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when Harry visits his parents' gravesite and sees their house for the first time, he wonders what his life would have been like had they lived and the narration notes that he wished he could have had siblings. He voices this thought later on to Ron and Hermione when he finds out that Dumbledore went through a phase of resenting his brother and sister as a teenager. | |

Fire Emblem In Fire Emblem: Awakening, if Yarne is paired up with his father and steps on an event tile, the latter will ask if the former wants something. Yarne asks for "lots of bunny-eared brothers and sisters". This is completely justified, as Yarne's greatest fear (having come from a Bad Future where his mother died) is the extinction of his kind. Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade: Lilina is an only child, as she has no known siblings. A C-Rank support conversation with Ogier reveals that she always wanted to have a younger sister. |

Once on The Simpsons Bart (the oldest and only son of three kids) is upset about being the only boy, and tries tricking his parents into having another baby. Eventually, Marge confronts him about what's going on and, while certainly sympathetic to how her son feels, explains that she and Homer are fine with just three kids. Marge also points out that even if she and Homer do ever having a fourth child, said child might end up being another girl instead of a boy (which leads to Bart having a fantasy about having three sisters). Bart winds up going to the orphanage and temporarily adopting a brother instead. | |

Many of the "rival children" in Harvest Moon: Animal Parade express a desire for younger siblings, but the two who fit the trope most closely are Lucy and Dakota. Lucy asked her parents, and they agreed, but never have any luck having a second because Status Quo Is God. Dakota, meanwhile, went all the way to the Harvest King to ask for a little sister, but he told her there was nothing he could do unless her parents started getting along first. | |

This was a trait of the titular turtle of Franklin throughout the first four seasons of the animated series. At times he had a couple of sibling surrogates, first in his best friend Bear's little sister, Beatrice, and also in a guest-star youngster character named Squirrel. The Franklin and the Green Knight movie deals with him at first being excited about finally getting a sibling, then becoming worried when he learns that babies get a lot of attention, even before they're born. Franklin's Magic Christmas sees him dealing with jealousy issues with his new sister, Harriet, who is now toddler/early-preschooler age thanks to a combination of Comic-Book Time and Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome. The fifth and sixth seasons of the program, as well further specials and the spin-off series Franklin and Friends have him, in general, settled comfortably in the role of caring big brother. The Franklin picture books do hint at this trait, but it's much more prominent in the animated series. | |

In Calvin and Hobbes, Calvin once tells his mother he wishes he had a little brother. "You want a new friend to play with?" "No, I just want somebody small I could beat up." The next panel is Calvin's dad at work telling his wife they'll talk about that operation later. Subverted in an early story arc where Calvin's Mom gets sick—Hobbes points out that she might be pregnant again, which causes Calvin to panic. But then it later turns out that Calvin's parents aren't going to have another baby. |

Alto tries to talk her out of it because such a suggestion could threaten her position as Queen. Whatever comes of this is ultimately rendered moot when the queen is murdered by her trusted captain of the royal guard, Klaus. | |

Since her mother marries her longtime boyfriend on Christmas Eve, and Christmas morning finds them moving into Susan's dream home, it's heavily implied that the mother is pregnant. | |

Littlefoot in at least one of the The Land Before Time sequels has shown interest in wanting a sibling. It doesn't help that he's one of the only main characters in the series (except for Chomper) to be an only child. He DID get a stepbrother when his long-absent father Bron returned in the tenth film, and at Littlefoot's urging, adopted Shorty, a Brachiosaurus who had come to view Bron as a father. | |

In her previous life, Katarina My Next Life as a Villainess: All Routes Lead to Doom! was the youngest of three children and had always asked her parents for a younger brother or sister. As such she is incredibly happy when she meets her adoptive little brother Keith for the first time (with a hint of dread due to him being responsible for her death or exile in several routes). She stands in direct contrast to the original Katarina, who bullied Keith out of hatred for him taking away their father's attention. | |

In Drowtales, it's considered good luck to have twins or a similar - age sibling. As a result, the Sharen clan has the practice of a "protector twin" (adopting - or buying - a child, usually from a servant family) to give their own children a chance to have a same - age sibling. Unfortunately, this often results in sibling rivalry, ending with the death of the protector twin at the hands of the former child, or (less often) vice versa. | |

In one Diary of a Wimpy Kid book, Greg talks about how he originally wanted a younger sibling so he could have someone he could beat up (similar to how his own older brother acts towards him). He got his wish, but the younger brother in question is so coddled by their parents that Greg gets punished whenever he so much as breathes wrong in his direction. | |

In Fire Emblem: Awakening, if Yarne is paired up with his father and steps on an event tile, the latter will ask if the former wants something. Yarne asks for "lots of bunny-eared brothers and sisters". This is completely justified, as Yarne's greatest fear (having come from a Bad Future where his mother died) is the extinction of his kind. | |
