Family

Will my child thrive in life without a close family ?

I grew up with all my cousins, all my aunts and uncles got together for every holiday.

Unfortunately, I have 1 brother and he’s a complete asshole. Has called my kids ugly and annoying on multiple occasions. I finally barked back and basically told him to fuck off. We are now not talking. He has 2 kids, although they don’t come around often, that my son adores.

It breaks my heart to the core, not only for me, but becusse my child will not have his 2 cousins to grow up with.
