You may be on to something. I have read and heard similar arguments from others before. Even with my farted up family dynamics as a child. There was still family, and extended family on one side. However, after entering the military I gradually grew estranged from most overtime. I feel for my sons because they never had a chance to establish family relationships with hardly anyone. At least nothing close. My oldest and his wife have already decided they are not having children. Not sure about my youngest yet. So, there is that as well.
