This is important to remember. There was a whole lifetime of relationship and history that you really aren't privy to and it isn't yours to fix or really to judge without really knowing the family dynamics history. They aren't completely estranged since they do communicate some which is a whole lot better than so many families. It may not be ideal, but perhaps it is as good as it will get for this family based on its history.
