[quote=Anonymous]I did. Never again.

I did it because my parent was ill and got better, and it was a milestone and this was wanted more than a party.

By the time we took the picture, we were so ready to kill each other. Through his smile I could hear my sibling say, "You have 2 minutes to take this and I'm out,". He's almost 50.

My tween offered to take the photo to avoid being in it. I paid him $20 to smile.

My jr. tween asked if we could only go on vacations with our "fake cousins" from then on (friends).

One family member accused another of being on the spectrum (adults) and was told that it isn't a lack of understanding others, they just don't care.

Even my parent, at the end of the week, said next time, 3/10 people are invited. I downed 2 mimosas when we check out before coffee arrived at brunch.

I will look back on this fondly SOMEDAY, maybe.
A therapist would say my kids now know that perfect families don't exist, and that is valuable.

I say this because if you saw my family on facebook, you'd think it was happy, unless you knew us.

That picture is a gift to my parent and all she wanted. [/quote]
