[quote=Anonymous]DS announced this past weekend that he does not want to spend Thanksgiving or any other holiday with his grandparents this year. Said he'd much rather spend the holidays in his room, reading or playing video games, than with them. It's my side of the family. He never got along with them, he's a quiet introverted kid, rather bookish, absolutely non-athletic. They are all polar opposites. I don't mind to stay in either this holiday season, so I let my parents know. Well, they threw a fit, my siblings too, they are calling our little family "selfish". DH thinks we should just bite the bullet and see them, but I want to respect my DS feelings too. If he is not up to it, he is not up to it. I think pressuring him will cause more harm than good. How do I get my parents and siblings to understand?[/quote]
