[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For me, my spouse's nieces and nephews are my nieces and nephews.[/quote] Me too. I think drawing the distinction is weird--my spouse's sister's kids also refer to me as their aunt.[/quote] This. Honestly, I'd never heard of making a distinction (i.e., "my husband's niece" vs "our niece") until moving to this area. My perspective may be different, because I'm an only child, but I consider DH's brother's daughter my niece, blood relation or not. I love her to bits.[/quote] The wording is all about the context, people. Wouldn't it be a very confusing question if it were worded "do you love your nieces/nephews more than your nieces/nephews?" The distinction is made so you know which specific nieces and nephews are being referred to.[/quote]
