Should Mr. Tau care?

It depends on Mr. Tau's family dynamics and who these family members are. If he's talking about aunt and uncles that you two would only see every blue moon maybe at a funeral, then I don't see why their opinion matters. But if we're talking about brothers/sisters/cousins and if his family is very close knit, I can see why he would care.
