Abstract The family in our current society has undergone changes, transformations and injuries, one of which is monogamy. The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze single child injuries for parents. The findings indicate that although there is no direct discussion of monogamy, quantity and number of children in religious teachings, the totality of verses and narrations on childbearing emphasize the importance of this issue. Monogamy is not only endorsed by religion, but is also known to be a problem that can cause many harm to parents. In this study, the physical, psychological, educational and spiritual injuries of a single child have been studied. Physical injuries of single parents such as the effect of pregnancy, breastfeeding and childbirth on maternal health, psychological injuries such as increased anxiety, stress and depression of parents, educational injuries such as childbearing, reduced family cohesion and time consuming education and spiritual injuries such as deprivation of virtues and childbearing rewards. Deprivation of spiritual support after death and reduced help in old age. The method of collecting documentary and library research and the method of processing descriptive and analytical materials has been the results of previous research.
