[quote=Anonymous]OP, let me mention one thing that might help get you looking in a different direction for what you want. We've got the family, the kids, the dog, etc. We don't have a grandma/pa presence due to distance and illness, and don't have an aunt/uncle presence due to distance. We have a next door neighbor, 65 y.o., Larla, who is a bristly woman with no husband and no kids, and I was musing the other day that if she had been a different type of personality, she would be "Aunt Larla" and would be over to our house for the holidays. But as it stands, we all are slightly on eggshells around her. I am NOT comparing Larla to you, OP. Just the opposite. There are families like mine who would LOVE to adopt an extended family. Go find them! [/quote]
