[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t worry about the gifts - first off, religious Jews only do token gifts for Hannukah so feel free to giggle a bit about that.  But who cares how they package holiday greetings/gifts - just accept graciously.

The trip will take care of itself in time.  Every time they bring it up act confused, “Oh, I thought Larlo told you already - we aren’t going.   How about those Mets?”  Don’t explain bc they will just  argue or push back.   Just the same sentence with the same inflection.    If you dare you can start act worried for them - “I am starting to worry about your memory lately because we told you we aren’t going.   Do you find yourself forgetting a lot of things?   Maybe we should see a doctor……with my grandma it all started with forgetting little things…..” and you’re off on a related sorry.   [/quote]

Thank you. I tried a bit of this with his brother who texted about something last night. No response. He knows we are not going and keeps playing dumb and now trying to push our kids to convince us to go on the trip. It’s a long trip and planned out as a Jewish religous trip for 10 days and spouse Can’t takeoff 10 days for that plus takeoff time to take your child to college plus go to the orientations which normally happen over the summer for the few colleges child is applying to. There’s a pushes people I’ve ever met in my life I I don’t know how to handle them.[/quote]
