How often do you visit relatives?
Being
on a different continent, not that often.

about once
a year or so

Gahanna, OH USA
Most of my
out-of-town relatives live on the east coast and I try to see them every
couple of years. My daughter lives near me and I visit her and her family
every few days.
Jane,

West Linn, OR USA
I check in
on my mom about once a month or so and see my younger brother about every
two months. My older brother lives 400 miles west but he's moving back
for a little while. Everybody else I see randomly.

I see my in-town
relatives at least once every couple of months. When my nieces or nephews
have swim meets or basketball games, it can be as often as every week
during their sports seasons. The last time I saw the out-of-towners on
my Mom's side was at a reunion about six years ago, and most of the old
folks didn't come. I haven't seen most of them since the last reunion
before that, about 16 years ago. My Dad is an only child with most of
his relatives still in China, so I met only a few of them 4 years ago.

Rarely, but
joyfully--at least on my side of the family.
Jill,
61
Saylorsburg, PA USA
I visit my
mom and Aunt Margaret about 5 or six times a year. I see my siblings at
least once a year (either they travel north or I travel south to see them).
Felicia,
38
Lowell, MA USA
All the time.
I see my one sister every week. My other sister lives further away so
we talk weekly. I see my one brother couple of times a month. My other
brother- sporadically. I see my nieces and nephews frequently.
Janet,
46
E. Brunswick, NJ USA
I visit my
siblings about 4 times a year. My in-laws I visit about 2 times a year.
My husband usually has an additional visit to his mother in the year without
me.
Laura,
39
Lowell, MA USA
Hmmm...quite
often, I suppose. At least once a week.
Tam
Fairly
often.
Karen,

Ames, IA USA
Now
that we're many hours away...at holidays and once every couple of months
for a weekend.
Sarah
Lowell, MA USA
Some
major hollidays. Rarely in between. Always in the summer.
