How did your daughter only end up with 1 cousin from your 11 siblings? That's a catastrophically low TFR.
- x1ph0z 3y agoFew scenarios, could be that they are the oldest and the rest of their siblings aren’t ready to have a family.

- MBCook 3y agoI could be 1 in the same age range.
- em-bee 3y agomy dad was the youngest of 7. and he had kids late. so almost all my cousins on my dads side are at least a decade older than me, and we barely had any contact with them growing up. on the other hand, cousins on my mothers side are all my age, and i have the best relationship with at least one of them despite only seeing each other every few years.
- masklinn 3y agoShit experience with large family would do it. My grandparents had 12 living children, less than half my aunts and uncles decided to have kids, and those who did had 1-3.
- irrational 3y agoWell, that cousin is from my wife’s side. She does have dozens of first cousins from my side, but we live far away from them, so she has only met some of them once or twice for short periods of time. Nothing long enough to form a connection. Plus, she is older than all of them by about 5 years, so there is that too.
