DO YOU KNOW?-edited

I wonder if any of you know young adults who don’t have or didn’t have parents growing up? 
I am writing about this topic because my two nephews and niece lost their mother when they were in their late teens. They lost their father, my brother a couple of years ago. The point I want too make is that children even adult children  probably need and would appreciate some guidance. I never realized it until lately. I do understand that children want to make their own mistakes but I think they need to hear from adults what is wrong and right. I realized a few years ago that even though my children were young adults I still had a lot to teach them whether they wanted to hear it or not. Of course they will do what they want but like teens they still need guidance.
For example it is a tradition that when there is a wedding, Bar Mitzvah etc. and people are coming from out of town someone usually invites the out of town guests for supper the night before the wedding and usually breakfast the morning after. I thought about it and was going to call my niece. In the end I didn’t because I didn’t want to "mix" in. Well when I spoke to her at the Bar Mitzvah she said I should have called her.
My nephew who lost his mother a long time ago came to the Bar Mitzvah without his wife and children.
Yes they live far away – in California.
Yes the children ranging from 9 till about 20 Some are at school and university. Is 100% all that important?????
Yes it would be expensive but they just built a mansion.
I don’t know about his wife. I have only met here a few times and I guess education is the TOP Priority.

BUT I feel strongly that they should have made an effort to come with their family to the Bar Mitzvah this weekend. They have six children so if the older ones were busy with exams at least the younger ones could have come. They place too much emphasis on education and nothing at all on family.
I plan to send my nephew and his wife an email saying that I missed them at the affair and hope to see them soon. I will also say that it was sad not having them there.

Anyhow I am going to take a nap. In the meantime I’d appreciate some feedback. Do you know some young adults who might need and appreciate guidance???
