There is a study that shows Americans spend just 35 minutes a day with their family during the week. Finding time to spend with your family can be difficult. This is because most of the time they are busy working and providing for my family, or just have plans. So, it is easy to understand why we can never find the time to be together with family.  Spending time with family is important. There is also extended family, such as aunts, grandparents and cousins. For example, me and my cousin are very close. Spending time with family will teach the value of family and provide the opportunity to bond. So, whenever you get time to spend with family you want to spend time with them, but doing what? Whenever I get time to spend with my family normally, we just watch a movie or get something to eat. Therefore, spending time with family is important because they’re not always available. Family time is valuable and precious. So, you should appreciate all the time you do get to spend together.
