[quote=Anonymous]I would book a weekend trip, even if it is just renting a nice AirBnB an hour away. I would let my mother know that we are unavailable and we can try to find a mutually agreeable time for a visit. I would not give her details of what we are doing because I wouldn’t want her to find ways to include herself or try to modify her plans. Then I would hold off on telling my children about the trip until just before. I get the whole not answering the door and I agree it really sends the message, however, I would not want to spend my Thanksgiving constantly stressed about when that knock will come and also do not want to subject my family to the stress of that drama. Because whether we agree to the visit or refuse to answer the door, the holiday is essentially ruined either way. Getting out of town seems like the most likely way to have a mom drama free Thanksgiving.[/quote]
