[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It used to be more rare to move far away from family- that is a big piece. Also, I think women used to spend more time maintaining family ties (even with ILs) than they do now. My dad had 4 brothers- my mom and the other wives planned everything, kept in close touch, and the men mostly just showed up. Most women do a lot less of this now (I know I do)- & expect the DH to take the lead with his family (and many men don’t do a great job at keeping in touch). [/quote] +1 and ppl are more likely not to deal with bull. When I was growing up ppl were bothered by stuff but it was swept under the rug. When I had kids I refused to deal with my sibs craziness and didn't go back. Didn't want my kids intertwined with their kids on social media. My kids don't know their cousins.[/quote]
