[quote=Anonymous]I come from a family like this. I think it requires two things - 1. a person who is willingly taking upon themselves some organizational responsibility, and not being a martyr about it. This used to be my grandma and now it’s my cousin. 2. a deeply internalized understanding for everyone involved that sometimes things don’t go your way, and it’s ok. Your kids won’t be on their sleep schedule - it’s ok. They won’t get all the food exactly how they like it - that’s ok. There won’t always be your preferred programming on TV - that’s ok. Etc, etc. No one is too special or too precious in my extended family.[/quote]
