In this post, the children are asking them to move closer to them. That is significant. Because our friends tend to be in our same age group, they face the same issues that we do. That means that we shouldn't depend on them for support because they may not be in a position to do so.

@kjoed53 sometimes children will encourage parents to move close to them with all good intentions, but young people have extremely busy lives with work and their own growing family so may not be able to give the kind of social and emotional support that the parents are getting already, where they are living. If they are enjoying their social life among friends of the same age group with same issues … why fix something that is not broken?
