The family in different cultures

>We value the family more than anything.

I don't know why but this mindset common in Latins/Meds etc. cultures just boggles me and bothers me.
Why should the group of people you were unwittingly born into be the most important thing in your life?
And then extended family of cousins that goes literally into the hundreds sometimes since these cultures seems to have massive families.

I don't know, maybe it's just because I don't like my family. But I would happily never speak to my extended family again. And that's fine to me

...

Sup Forums do you love your families talk to me

bump

>he never fought with his cousins against rude guests at a wedding of another cousin.

Then again I'm not wh*te

not been to a wedding in my adult life unfortunately

My friend let me tell you, your family is something you will have forever. The west is more focused on individualism so it's natural that you don't give a shit about the people who aren't your mom or dad.

My family is fuck huge it has some benefits but alot of messed up shit like feuds about money or land.
So yeah tl;dr love your family cause they are the only thing you will have all your life in good times and bad times

>My friend let me tell you, your family is something you will have forever

Except for when your parents die/go senile, which is probably when you hit 40 considering how late people get kids nowadays.

Siblings are just people you happened to grow up with. If you were birds you'd be killing each other.

This desu, friends come and go but family stays forever.

>people in this board care about their "race" but not their family
