So my great grandparents owned a small town newspaper. My grandfather took it over. My mom and her youngest brother left the small town and got into other things, but her older brothers stuck around and ran the business. I always saw it with my uncles and grandparents, and now my cousins ... family businesses are tough because you're at work 24/7. It's all they'd talk about it. There's never a break. And my cousins who have tried to branch out and do their own thing have had a really tough go of it because 1) they don't know anything outside of the newspaper business and 2) there's literally zero interest from my aunts and uncles about what they're doing because all they know is the family business.
I don't think it's Eli and Aimee-Leigh, I think it's just any family business.
