[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's important to maintain relationships with family.  It's grounding.  It's the people that knew you since you were born, and who will know you when you are old.  Friends will often come in and out of your life, siblings will always be there.  In fact, since my parents will probably die decades before me, and since my wife and I did not meet until our 20s, my sister will know me the longest of anyone on earth.[/quote]

I agree that people should maintain relationships with siblings.  But siblings are not our only family.  Parents, cousins, aunts, uncles, children, nieces, grandparents, nephews, good friends and in-laws are family as well.  It doesn't matter who has known you the longest.  You don't have to throw other family relationships under the bus just to boost sibling relationships.  Some people don't have siblings or they have deceased siblings?  Please, don't make them feel that the family that they have is less than if they don't have a sibling. [/quote]
