[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some families are actually happy with the get togethers. We do a Christmas time get together and a summer beach week and we don't have any drama. Young cousins play together. It's all good. It's the way families have been for eons.[/quote] I believe there are many families who actually get along. There are also families where you walk in the room, and you can feel the tension with a knife. At holidays, everyone is chomping at the bit for the first one to leave, so they too can grab their coats and dash. I don't think people here are talking about the warm, welcoming, inclusive and fun families. I think people here are talking about the families with anxiety and depression and more, who don't own their shit, who are at each other in a passive aggressive manner. I mean if you take the valuable vacation time, schlep all that way, and barely engage, WTF is the point? [/quote]
