[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Childless people like my Aunt have [b]siblings and nieces and nephews[/b][/quote] But my grandmother's siblings are all dead. And do nieces and nephews really provide the same kind of loving care that a child would? [/quote] It depends on the relationship. Two of my aunts did not have children. One was married and one never did. We have a close family and everyone stepped in to help care for my aunt and then my uncle before they died. My other aunt is still alive and in good health. We would absolutely provide the same level of support to her as for my parents. She helped raise us and has always been there for us. She still is. [/quote]
