[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a man. I adore my own kids. I am not all that interested in my nieces and nephews - especially on my wife's side of the family. It is what it is.[/quote]

I am a woman and a mom, I don't have nieces or nephews from my only sibling, and neither my DH and I are adoring nieces and nephews from his side/ I also considered them my nieces and nephews. We like them, we buy Christmas present and are attentive when they visit or we visit, but that's it. I did adore my second niece(from my cousin) when she was a small child, but she was the first in a huge family and I was young and childless myself. I can honestly say that I adore my own kids, am kind and nice to others, but that is all. My sister, childless and middle aged, adores my kids, this might be a childless aunt/uncle thing.  I bet you OP comes back in a few years after she has a kid and complains how much money she spend on her niece and now they are doing nothing for her kid. This is how people set themselves up for always being right and always having something to gripe about.[/quote]
