[quote=Anonymous]Empty nest is a weird concept for humans. I've been researching my European peasant ancestry. The oldest boy(s) never left home. They ran the farm until their parents died. Girls married out and immediately became junior housekeepers/farm wives and mothers within their husbands' household. If your family was big and poor, middle and younger children might have gone to the big city to be day laborers and maids. More likely down the road to a neighboring farm that was short of family at the right life stage or gender.[/quote]
