[quote=Anonymous]I'm a couple years shy of 50, and I've already surpassed the ages of 2 grandparents (died less than 40) and about to surpass the age of a parent. I think it helps ground me not be too "helicopter-y," and reminds me that it is important to help my kids become self-sufficient and not dependent entirely on me. Within the next 10 years, my DC likely won't have any close family except DH, my sibling and me. They have no first cousins, and don't know their second cousins. Oddly, their next closest family connections are with 3rd cousins who are 10 years older and a 12 hour drive away.[/quote]
