Too young? You're never too young...well maybe you are. I wouldn't want to party with an 8 year old, unless it was Drew Berrymore. Anyway, I am not a big fan of my family, and who says you have to be stuck with them. My friends are my family, and I can always start one I like. Anyway, If you like your cousin as a friend, not just because you have to, hang out with him/her because you want to hang out, not because you want to go somewhere. It doesn't matter where you are, just who you're with. But if more of the problem is the flaking part, ditch the loosah.
