This happens namely b/c people are simply busy and most of us (prob. including yourself) have a tendency to do whats in front of them. We Americans make ourselves too busy with too much junk, along with the necessities of life. So keeping that in mind, I would say that while you feel a bit hurt that no one is reciprocating your contacts, that if you can and want to, then continue them. What it would show to your children is that family does matter and that keeping in touch with your lineage is important. Too many children nowadays have no clue who their cousins are, much less 2nd cousins, great grandparents, etc. What a shame. But if you can find yourself not becoming bitter or too hurt, keep up the contact. Obviously, you can't make other people want to stay connected. But I think that it is a good thing that you make the effort and it shows quite a bit of good character on your part.
