In this podcast, Neil, along with co-host Robin, reviews a question that Amy Dickenson responded to in her column at the end of December entitled, "Texas native should go home again."

What do you do if your family of origin has cut you off for moving away?

In the column, a woman from a small town in Texas had lost connection to her family there. She would like to reconnect, but encounters reticence on the part of her hometown family members.

Neil provides insights into what can lead to family estrangement and offers support for people who may find themselves dealing with estrangement or family dysfunction.
