Default situation occurs to a lot of us that live far and close to loved ones,

[QUOTE=Michael G.;2089447]My wife and I have one adopted son with our daughter-in-law living close by here in Florida. Our son and wife treat my wife and I wonderful in so many ways to mention.
The four of us travel a lot, play cards, and spent a lot of time together.

Wife and I where never blessed with grandchildren and wondered about people here in Florida that just pulled up stakes and left their sons, daughters and young grandchildren some were miles out of state.

Do you feel a void part of your life by missing them dearly and being part of their lives?
Do you wish you lived closer to enjoy them besides a occasional phone call or visit? A lot of loved ones abandon family whether they live far or close because they are engrossed in personal problems and and make excuses not to see their grandparents. Or if they do they want to be compensated to do so, so sad that we are in different time generation were money plays a great apart in family life. A lot of obvious negative thing have happened that have made this happen within in the last 5 years. all around us
