[quote=Anonymous]I'm just looking to vent and for some support. I will spare the specifics but suffice it to say I am dreading this thanksgiving due to dysfunctional family dynamics . There has been about a lot of petty behavior, rehashing things that happened 20 years ago, and taking it out on our kids by canceling longstanding traditions at the last minute. It's so incredibly frustrating as its a short holiday and I can't understand why the other adults in question can't just rise to the occasion to have a nice day together. It is also made harder by being surrounded with friends who can't wait to see their extended families and will have housefuls of relatives visiting. Sigh. I am putting on a positive attitude for the family because life is too short for this nonsense as I am the one who tends to be the peacemaker and focuses everyone on activities that are fun for the kids but it's really exhausting.
