Preferred term
relationships with aunts and uncles
Definition
- Family scholars are only recently beginning to understand the roles of aunts and uncles in families, when and how their relationships with nieces and nephews develop, and how these relationships spill over to influence other family members. Three broad issues are presented here: a summary of the factors that influence the development of relationships among aunts and uncles with nieces and nephews, a summary of the common ways such relationships emerge and their importance to families, and a summary of differences between aunts and uncles.
