I just finished reading "The Little Princess" by Frances Hodgson Burnett. It might be a good read-aloud book for Abi at some point in the future. Lots of topics that could be springboards for discussion. I have to admit I wish I was able to act (think, respond) more like a "princess" many a day.
You can date cousins. I remember reading recently that having children with your cousins doesn't have the genetic problems/implications as once thought. Old wives tail apparently. Did anyone else hear that?
I don't think it's such a problem if it doesn't become the only source of water in your gene pool. (Royalty could only marry royalty and the Europeans weren't much on venturing beyond Europe. Hence, one flaw was multiplied in just a few generations)

So has anyone broken it to her yet that you can't date cousins?
