How many first cousins do you have? (catholic, Jewish, Christ)

[MidnightBlue]

In My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Toula tells Ian that she has twenty-seven first cousins, and he remarks that he has two.

How many first cousins do you have?
If you have children, how many first cousins do they have?
How many do your parents have?
Do you see them often?
Do you go to family reunions?

My mother was an orphan so I have no idea on her side and my Dad has several brothers in North Carolina that I've never met. I do have cousins but haven't met any of them so I have no idea how many there are. Sorry to be so boring!

My kids only have one cousin and that is my sister Nicole's daughter, Talia.

Honestly, I have eight cousins (on both mum and dad's side), but husband on the other hand has more the 60 cousins on either side. So that's about 120 for him.

I probably have 21-30, but I can really only name the majority on my mother's side (the majority, because one of her brothers has a ton of children, so I just had to say, he has about six, because that made it a round number). I remember that my dad's side had roughly the same amount, so I doubled it, bringing me to about 28, so it could actually be lower than that, but not that much lower.

I only ever see my maternal cousins once a year, if that, and I haven't seen my paternal ones since like 1995, because my dad's siblings have all moved to very random parts of the country (whereas my mother's have stayed in the chicago area).

I don't know how many cousins my parents have. Neither of them really stay in touch with their families.

I guess he makes up for some of us who are lacking in cousins.

Nope

We don't have family reunions. Our family's pretty broken

[doppelgänger]

Irish-Catholic families on both sides (my father was one of 11 kids, my mother one of 13) . . . so I have at least 60 first cousins.

[SoyLeche]

34 first cousins, 4 siblings and myself

My son has 10 first cousins, with one on the way - with 5 uncles/aunts that don't have kids at all yet.

I wouldn't even try to count the number of first cousins my parents have - a lot.

I see most of them at least once a year, and I go to reunions if it is feasible (it often isn't because I live 3000 miles from where they are held).
