[quote=Anonymous]As an unmarried adult child who lived several hours away from my parents from ages ~25-45, I can say I really appreciated having them visit me and get to know my new cities and some of my friends in each place. They visited me every place I lived, not often, but at least once in each location. I can tell my mom has fond memories of those trips and appreciates having spent some time with my friends from there, when they come up in conversation or come visit me in DC now I'm back here. Also, no major resentment, but it can be an ongoing low-level stress on the unmarried adult when their siblings who have kids become the inevitable center of gravity for family gatherings. It makes sense that it should be so, but it really is nice to have visits and get to be the host and local expert some of the time, to balance out holidays that are more likely to be spent with the family with kids.[/quote]
