[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you only have one child, just realize that making this choice means that your one child will have no extended family. The cousins will forget about him/her and your child has no choice, being a child.

But if you don't care about that, then no, not awful.[/quote]

OMG ignore the dramas llamas trying to give you a guilt trip. We were forced to pretend to have a close extended family and un-needed gifts were always sent...often passive aggressive gifts. they took endless photos of "the cousins" and would force us to smile and look like one big happy family because that is what you are supposed to do. Once the people who forced us together were gone, we did not get together. It was all such BS. We heard "you need family" and "family is verything" all while the parents clearly resented their own siblings and cousins,

On the other hand in my huband's family there were cutoffs galore which made the cousins more curious about eachother. Later on they reached out to eachother and those that clicked have a relationship.[/quote]
