Family is hours away and that makes it so much more difficult to achieve the sense of unity that I would prefer to have. I wonder now, is this a cultural issue or really a degradation of the family unit due to a lack of conviction or values?

Its a cultural issue. America is much more nomadic when it comes to families than other cultures. I don't know how much I consider this a bad thing though, all the rest I'm pretty much on board with.
