[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't view my husbands nieces the same as mine by my brother. I also never grew up thinking the people married to my aunts and uncles were also my aunt a and uncles. I don't feel like this is terribly odd. [/quote] I think it's really odd and sad. Most people probably list a sibling (and spouse) as a guardian for the kids when they die. So if you don't think of your spouses nieces/nephews as your own nieces nephews, the resulting relationship will probably be very cold. I think of all the kids in that sort of family generation, related or through marriage, are my nieces and nephews. [/quote] Sadly I have to agree with pp, I grew up considering my uncle's wife as my aunt and adored her until they divorced and she shunned his entire family including me and my sisters. She also turned their daughter against her dad (and the rest of his family) so I haven't seen my cousin in years because of her. [/quote]
