Replace whole chainset if replace front chainring? - Cycling Mob: Road Cycling, Mountain Biking and More

Hi,

I need to replace my front chainring 'cause it's broke. Will I have to
replace my entire chainset? People have told me that the entire chainset
stretches with use and so if you replace one component, you have to replace
the whole lot. I've probably used my bike for at least 1000 rides.

Thanks,
Jack
