It is common for grandparents to actively participate in the upbringing of their grandchildren, and family ties are typically prioritized above individual needs.


Here are some other family members and relatives that can be commonly found in the extended Kazakh family:
Historically, Kazakh society was nomadic, and kinship ties played a crucial role in maintaining social cohesion. The concept of "aul" (village) extended beyond physical boundaries to include all members of the same clan or tribe. This sense of kinship and communal responsibility is still prevalent in contemporary Kazakh society, where loyalty and respect for elders are highly valued.
