]]>Ultimately, if you project onto them your passions, they may or may not fall in love with those passions too. But if they don’t, they’ll never want to pursue it—and you should be okay with that.

In addition, if your children spend a lot of time with their cousins, they’ll likely form loving bonds that’ll last a lifetime. It’s kind of like having extra siblings, and in some cases unique best friends, especially when two cousins are of the same age. Even if you and your sibling aren’t the closest, your respective children will benefit from connecting to one another.
