Family get together is becoming more and more common. The fact of the matter remains that many family members reunite each weekend in many cases. It is a great thing and it increases family bonds. So, do you participate in family get together?
 
No, I don't, because my family lives overseas.

Ah! That must be a really hard part. I have also lived in a different country for some time. During that time, I also used to miss my family a lot. Having said that, I regularly used to speak to my family members over the phone. This can offer some relief when you are feeling lonely. 😀
 
Yeah, I do family get-togethers but honestly it's a mixed bag. We meet up maybe once a month at my parents' or aunt's place - good food, cute kids, but also awkward small talk and that one uncle who always brings up politics. I usually leave feeling more connected even when it's kinda draining, but every weekend would be way too much for me. I need some weekends to just chill or hang with friends. The monthly thing works though - keeps the family bonds strong without being overwhelming. What about you, do you do the regular family thing?
