I just heard a podcast that gave a statistic that only 18% of families are "nuclear families", with a mom, dad, and kids. So they were featuring stories about non-traditional families, or the other 82%. I thought that statistic was a surprisingly high percentage and I wish I knew it before because I think I wouldn't have build up so much anguish in my life about striving for a traditional nuclear family setup and being sad if I don't achieve that standard.
Anyway, TBT is like a found family, and I'm excited about that!
Does anyone else have stories about their non traditional families that they'd like to share?
For example, I think all the time about that news story that always comes up around Thanksgiving time about how there's that kid who accidentally texted some grandma (who was not his) about what time thanksgiving dinner was, or what they were doing for thanksgiving, and then somehow has been invited to that other family's thanksgiving for years.
