Anyone else have a really good relationship with their family?

My wife called my family the "Ozzie & Harriet" family. We are still very close even though my Mom

have passed.
 
I don't have a good relationship with my parents. My mom and I use to be close but not anymore. When I was younger I would do anything she told me to and now that I am an adult and make my own choices, she doesn't like it. She moved and didn't bother to let me know. I haven't talked to her on the phone in a while. I haven't seen her since Christmas. Same with my sister.

Yup, good relationship. It was a bit rocky when we were younger, but now we all get along great. (So much so, we all work at the same company. )

yup...sans the working together part.

We don't always get to choose how excellent the relationship with them will turn out, regardless of how great we may or may not be... sometimes they make the choice.

QFT ... it's all nice and fine if you've got a decent family to start off with, but if they are a bunch of psycho manipulator abusive freaks, then why would you want to have a relationship with them?

I get along well with both my parents. I generally talk with them 2-4 times per week. I also get along with both my sisters, though one has grown very distant over the past couple years.
 
i have a good relationship with most of my family:
i dont get to visit mom and dad much but we get along very well
i get along well with my brothers too, but hardly ever see them
i get along well with all of my dad's side of the fam
i get along ok with most of my moms side, but they piss me off because they are rich and snoby, northerners, and my grandparents did something once that was really ****** of them and still wont apologize :/ but they are still cool and i love seeing all of them 🙂
 
Everything's just fine between myself and my parents, grandparents, and sister.

I think the worst thing I have to put up with is providing tech support to my dad about things I've told him about already. And he's taken notes on these things. And then lost the notes. And then taken notes again. And lost them too.
