[quote=Anonymous]I completely understand the OP's reservations. If the brother won't commit, should his family? It is awfully weird for the kids to be called cousins when there is no formal kinship and when the brother's relationship breaks, so does that of the kids. There was a scene in Boyhood after the mom remarries and they blend their families but the marriage breaks down and the mom has to not only leave but call the stepchildren's mother to come take her kids because the dad was just a mess. As the mom drove away, her kids looked out their rear window and asked themselves, "I wonder if we'll ever see them (the former step-siblings) again." This is the sort of abrupt rupture that OP is worried about.[/quote]
