If you're not planning on reproducing, the members of the next generation sharing the greatest percentage of your genes are those nephews, so it's in the best interests of your genes to do what you can for those boys. If their arrival into the world triggered your interest in what happens to the next generation, that seems logical from a genocentric point of view. Yes?
