Only Child

Yesterday I bought one of Haruki Murakami's book and at one point, I read this part, something like, those parents who have only child don't like each other and don't have good relationship.
Last week, while the student I tutor and I were studying, he told me that he has four siblings, so five total.
As soon as I heard that, I could immediately take myself to my imagination department.
The picture where my student's parents lived in a rural farm, taking care of their crops.
When the hard labor was done, even before the sun went down, they dropped their shovels, and returned to their sweet, country-style home.
They've got so much relaxing time and that was how or why he has that many siblings, not in the year of 1960, but in 2013, I suspected.
However, I was wrong. He told me that his parents lived in a rich, city area.
