There is no legal or linguistic limit to the extent or type of maintaining kinship ties; rather, its determination is referred to custom. What people consider as maintaining ties is so, and what they consider as severing them is severing them. Maintaining kinship ties varies according to circumstances; it may be through financial support, visiting the sick, or a phone call. It has no specific time. So, if what a person does is customarily considered as maintaining ties, then they have fulfilled their obligation.
