1. Life Simply Becomes More Complicated
As children become adults, their priorities naturally change.
They may begin demanding careers, get married, have children of their own, move to another city, or even relocate to another country.
Suddenly, the spontaneous visits that once seemed normal become difficult to arrange.
Long working hours, childcare, financial responsibilities, and simple exhaustion can all reduce the amount of time available for family.
Physical distance can make the problem even harder.
Research has found that living farther apart is associated with fewer face-to-face interactions between family members.
That doesn’t necessarily mean the love has disappeared.
Sometimes, life has simply become overwhelming.
