[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you have kids, OP? Tweens are a trying age, so if you haven’t parented through it, you might just not have realistic expectations. Also, ask yourself how important it is to have a relationship with your nieces and nephews as they get older. You can be the fun Aunt they love to spend time with, or the annoying Aunt who disapproves of them. My kids have one of each. One aunt who is their favorite person in the world. And one whom has never made an effort to get to know them. If you really don’t care about maintaining the relationship, with the kids or your siblings, sure prove a point. [/quote] Tweens are only trying because of bad parenting in this era. Do you think 11 and 12 year olds were this materialistic during the World Wars? It's a function of how society has evolved to cater to children. Read "Pricing the Priceless Child" by Viviana Zelizer. [/quote]
