[quote=Anonymous]Tthere's nothing you can do about procuring cousins for your kid. There's no guarantee cousins will be close growing up anyway. I'm an older mom with an only child, one and done. My only brother lives on the West Coast but his kids are high school aged while mine is a toddler. They're cousins, and see each other once a year but aren't growing up together by any means. If what you want is for your kid to have friends their age to build a lifelong bond with, you have to focus your attention on helping them build community with other people. Close friends like family, school community, religious community if so inclined, etc.[/quote]
