I've kind of talked about this a little with my mom. She's Australian and all of her family still lives there. And she and my dad live in Oregon. And I live in Southern California and my brother lives in Montana and my dad's immediate family is scattered all over. Despite our weird "full-time mom" culture, we are all so transplanted and place so little importance on the WHOLE family structure. As Americans we tend to have this crazy disconnect from the people and support system that should be the most important part of our lives.

yeah, i don't think we value it the way that we should.
