[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you suggesting that mom/grandma invited only one of her kids and her/his family for Thanksgiving? Can you imagine the drama this would create? Even if uninvited adult child really didn't want to go?[/quote] What drama? See adult kid #1+their family at Thanksgiving See adult kid #2+their family at Christmas Alternate the holidays every year. See? Easy. Even do-able with more siblings, just pick different holidays, or maybe don’t get fixated on having to be together on a holiday. Again, I’m not saying this is the way it must be done, but if it’s been clearly demonstrated that having everyone at the same time is not working, then it’s better for everyone, yes EVERYONE to break things up into smaller groups. [/quote] Do you have children? I have a hard time imagining a parent writing this and not feeling slightly sad at the prospect your children can't manage to all be together once a year.[/quote]
