Be careful what you wish for. I have a DH who has a perfectly pleasant and loving relationship with his mother and sibling (no dad in picture) but was raised seeing extended family and even immediately family as people you see a couple times a year maybe and that you call every blue moon and all the politeness and boundaries you can handle..........as someone with a very close family I thought it was great because there would be less time spent juggling family visits and obligations if DH doesn't really have them. Problems arise when one person values proximity to family and the other looks at families as little floating islands, not very participatory in each other's lives or kids lives'. Its hard when DH wants to move to the West Coast (where we know 2-3 people total) and I want to move to be closer to family so my kids can grow up knowing their cousins and aunts.[/quote]
