I'm neither a Christian nor a parent, but Mrs QO and I both come from 'larger families' by your definition, and we very much love and value our siblings' children and our other godchildren (even if that label isn't formally applied, but it will indicate the importance of the relationship we attach to those children). We very much try to treat them as 'people, rather than nuisances', and that seems to me to be the key to a happy and healthy relationship with them.The Quizzical Observerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09485612545219110849noreply@blogger.com
