Originally 'you' was plural, but over time the language evolved and you became both plural and singular (replacing thou), right?

Could get around the whole problem without making any grammatical changes by rephrasing the sentence? "I'm going to miss you like a children miss their blankets."
You can definitely get around the problem by rephrasing the sentence, but it shouldn't have to be that way. Grammar is grammar. There shouldn't be tiers where some sentences are more confusing to write or say than others, forcing people to rearrange their words.

I don't think Fergie is to blame for starting that particular fad.
lol no it isn't Fergie's fault.
