It reminds me, how many of you are estranged from you siblings?

I haven’t talked to my brother in 4 or 5 years!

i choose not to associate with a couple of my brothers. i have little tolerance for fools anymore. its tough to say that about a brother, but its true. i would help them if they needed it and they would help me. but we don't associate.

Of course there are 2 exceptions. Always got a few and I have to say that those two aren’t missed at all by any of the rest of us.

talk to my 2 sisters about 3-4 times a week.
Brother and I talk occasionally, but he's not a phone guy. We're there to help each other for anything though.

I don’t talk to one of my brothers, mostly because we have nothing to talk about, and I would feel the need to kick his ass and straighten him out. Not much different with my sister.

I think I've talked to my dad once in the last 15yrs or so, at one sisters wedding. I haven't talked to either one of my sisters in over a year. I'm perfectly fine with that.

You can choose friends, you can't choose your family. But you can choose not to let family ruin you. Sometimes it's best not to talk to certain people.

Being family is like death.

Neither one changes an ass. Hole into a good person.

It is what it is.

There’s family members who’s company one can only tolerate in small doses, but that’s a far cry from being out of touch.

Not close to my fam, siblings, parents or my own kids.
Raised to be independent, self sufficient, did same for mine.
My ol lady and kids could move out tomorrow and I'd be fine with it.

Just want peace and quiet.
Hell I drove myself to the ER last week and was gonna call a cab to pick me up after surgery.
But the witch showed up and one of the kids brought my Jeep back.

My sisters and I are very tight. Being the oldest of our clan, I am thinking it may be time to bring them all together for at least one gathering. There are a few hatchets that need to be buried, but I can say that between my sisters and myself there are no fractures.

My brothers and I are close, but they live quite a ways from me . We’ve always been best friends. My adult sons and I talk frequently, but again, we’re physically far apart.
