Agreed!!Yep. Family members grow up and forms their life, experiences, and opinions.
Once upon a time, folks didn’t have much of a choice but to put up with family and some of the bullshit that can come with it. Now of days, a person doesn’t have to, especially those that has dealt with family trauma.
Do you have a nose ring with dyed hair?Agreed!!
I had a cousin inused to epend the night over there at least once a month and he even asked me to come to his high school...but wheni got there he would not hang with me or show me the ropes of high school. He would barely speak when he seen me in the hallways...
then he told one of my older cousin that i meaning(me) have my own friends..from high school we never spoke again until his mom and dad funerals..after the funerals nothing..,but many back in the day grew up with big mommas..she held the family together like glue!!
I grew up exactly like that... On holidays, we had a house full of people. Cars up and down the block.
Once my Grandmother passed away, it was a wrap. Almost everyone has a beef with someone for some reason or another. It's truly tragic, now.

If your wife is the glue, that's a wonderful thing. Because it's usually a grandparent or a parent.My wife is the glue to her family.. not every holiday but like Thanksgiving and sometimes on Christmas we get together at most of the time our house and have dinner.
I’m sure we know of a few situations like this

I guess I'm blessed. Me and my 2 brothers and 1 sister still hang out together. We group video talk all the time. We still bbq and throw parties for the kids and get together on Xmas and Thanksgiving and all that shit. Oldest brother lives in Granddaddy's old house, same house we grew up in and you'll still catch us all over there on friday and saturday. Sometimes we fight, but we forget about the shit the next day and go right back to kickin it. Same with all our favorite cousins, even the ones who moved outta state. We still talk all the time.

Yep every summer all the male cousins would spend a week at my grandparents and the next week all the female cousins, we'd be packed in that living room like sardines.Let's not forget that the grandparents kept the house together and made sleepover great. When growing up back then, we did kids things and never doing nothing that would've gotten us in trouble not being around adults.
Seems like as people get older becoming adults and the ones who kept the family together dies, is when people go there separate ways and only come together when there's a funeral.
I missed those times back then, sometimes it makes you want to be a kid all over again.Yep every summer all the male cousins would spend a week at my grandparents and the next week all the female cousins, we'd be packed in that living room like sardines.
Man I wanna go build a fort with the couch cushions and a sheet and hook up the Atari 2600 with my kinfolks right now.I missed those times back then, sometimes it makes you want to be a kid all over again.

She should cherish the good times now, because it can go sour quickly.
