[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m stressed about navigating another holiday like this, sad for my four year old because she sees her friends’ with their cousins and their relationships are sweet[/quote] My DS 6 was kicked in the stomach by his 10 year old cousin who is close to testing for his black belt. DS was talking about it a month later. So you can imagine I do NOT bend over backwards trying to spend time with them. I was only in town because my dad had a health scare. Don't martyr yourself or your kids. If a relative wasn't supportive of us as we went through 4 surgeries (one was a 5 day stay with gallstone pancreatitis) and 3 births, they have zero entitlement to major holidays or birthdays. Find your tribe elsewhere. It is much better to be a 25% b-tch up front than for someone to push your buttons forcing you to pull out the 100% b-tch card and cause a scene (speaking from personal experience here). Drive by relatives get president's day, labor day, etc. [/quote]
