[quote=Anonymous]Actually, the often very rude advice to let it go and do your own thing has been very useful to me. When my SIL’s kids moved to our area for jobs, I thought it would be a great opportunity for them and my kids -first cousins- to get to know each other, even though I know they are young adults with busy lives. We have invited them over many times and included them in weekend trips and holidays. While they go to visit their other cousins out of state a few times a year, they never initiate anything with us or my kids. So I have stopped expecting them to behave differently and have stopped inviting them. It would have been nice for my kids to have a closer relationship with them but they don’t seem to want that. Oh well.[/quote]
