Why's it got to be about rights? It's possible to decide it's nicer if people can live near their parents and grandparents and friends, than not, and change systems and policies such that that's a more-accessible way of living, without it being a right. [EDIT] And that's putting aside that "right" just means "thing we like a bunch", anyway.
