[quote=Anonymous]I have an extraverted only child and don't think moving to be near older cousins is a good solution – especially if it is somewhere you don't like. It isn't worth it. There's no guarantee that the cousins want to be the designated playmate for your child and it is unfair to set up the expectation that they would be. My kid has cousin who is 3 years older and they get along great at 8 and 11, but in a few years, a 15 year old girl isn't going to want to hang out with a 12 year old boy on a regular basis. We plan lots of playdates, fill the summer with camps, play on 2 sports teams and beyond that *shrug* I run out of time and energy. [/quote]
