[quote=Anonymous]I think growing up "typically" with large gatherings does not guarantee anything. The core memories are about loving families. If things ended in estrangement, there was a lot brewing under the surface of the big family gathering. You are trying to give the "normalcy" to your kids, but really you are just repeating the dysfunction because you hate it. Do your own thing for the holidays now and then and see if you are happier. You can see extended family when there is less pressure to be merry. Do what leads to to real happiness, not what looks right on the surface. [/quote]
