[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11:15 here again.[b] I wonder if the people saying you should’ve delivered the message less bluntly have dealt with this level of dysfunction before. You have to be very clear about boundaries. Crystal clear. [/b] OP’s mom knew OP’s feelings about not being around those people, and keeping her kids away, and still expected an exception to be made for a family wedding. [b]That kind of twisted thinking permeates dysfunctional families, and if you don’t spell out the rules exactly, cross every t and dot every i, some people will look for loopholes then try to feign ignorance. [/b][/quote] 11:32 here. I totally agree with this.[/quote]
