[quote=Anonymous]I think it's pretty common (not necessarily outright estrangement but general distance and disinterest) and imo is an important component of falling birthrates. I have two kids and for sure would have had there if we lived near grandparents and aunts/uncles. I don't want to repeat this with my kids if at all avoidable. When parents complain about intensive raising kids today is, one of the reasons for this is that our nuclear families are sort claustrophobic in a way that extended family helps diffuse the parent - child relationship.[/quote]
