Kinship is central to an understanding of human
sociality.
Sexual partnerships, parenthood, grandparenthood, friendship, and
so forth, are qualitatively distinct kinds of close relationships
that differ in many specific ways other than just in the degree
of intimacy. This fact has not been fully appreciated by most
psychologists who do not consider how natural and sexual selection
has designed the human psyche.
