That's a silly generalization. Are you telling me that all the priests I know are wicked renegades, because they maintain loving, close bonds with their parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews and nieces? Ouch, that forbidding is harsh stuff. Wait until their bishop finds out! ...The bishop who visited his family on Christmas. Also you've ignored and snubbed Ordinariate priests and many Eastern Catholic ones who are happily married with plenty of kids running around the parish.
