Is it normal behaviour for a 33 year old single Uncle to speak to his 18 year old niece 2,3 or 4 times every day?
The conversations are always online and appear innocent. He is encouraging her to visit him for Christmas vacation. He lives 600 miles away.

Hard to say. Did they ever have a normal uncle/neice relationship before? Or is he kinda new in her life?
If it seems normal...it probably is, but I might be a bit concerned over the frequency. She's 18 and technically an adult, but unless you know him well, I'd at least warn her that the frequency isn't normal at all. Let her decide but always offer advice.

IMO and experience (as a young person) there is not any such concern as 'teenage habit'. there is whether or no longer, habit it somewhat is inspired, taught, modeled, conditioned and programed right into a baby by potential of their mothers and dads and different influential persons. in short, little ones act the way mothers and dads have knowledgeable them to act. on your case, i could say there's a tremendously good bond between you & your son and it truly is beneficial to motivate what seems to be a good, trusting relationship there - some thing that my mothers and dads did no longer do for us little ones. i can't think of of something extra helpful and particular than an uncomplicated, trusting and respectful relationship between mothers and dads and their little ones and it truly is continuously as much as the be certain to make it that way. I want my mothers and dads have been approachable and truthful!

It is normal to have a FRIENDSHIP with a family member. However, you should be very careful, because innocents maybe a way to lier someone in for something that they do not want to do. If she wants to visit over CHRISTMAS, she should not go alone.......Be very cautious of what may lie ahead. Good luck with the decision that is made.

Has she ever visited before? If so, has there been any problems?
Normalsy depends on other behaviors besides wanting to be with family for the holidays. Why can't he visit?
As for the number of times chatting on line, that is for the parents to decide.

No, that isn't normal. I don't talk to my own sister 2-4 times a year let alone her kids. Sounds like he's looking for some incestual action.

if you dont know this uncle, im sorry but i wouldn't trust him at all. now a days you cant trust even some of your family members. the 18 year old may not think anything of it but you can never be too careful.

It is normal to talk to your uncle more than 4 times a day, but online? definitely not and definitely not asking you to visit him.
Change your im address/name.

Just so you know, my uncle used to send me tons of postcards back in the day from his travels.
"Oh, how sweet!", right?
Then he acted very unavuncular when I saw him in person.
To this day I'll have nothing to do with that part of the family....
Just have her say "My parents are limiting my computer time" and no, she can't visit.

That sounds a bit strange. I would find out what his reasons are for wanting to see her. If he helped to raise her and she is like a daughter to him, then I don't see the harm. But if there is an ulterior motive...well, use your best judgment.

If he is on the up-and-up, he ought to visit her at her parent's house......not have her come 600 miles to visit him. I would worry about this guy... he sounds wrong to me.
