[quote=Anonymous]There's a lot of pressure to see family over the summer, or to attend a graduation or celebrate a birthday or anniversary. My family has a lot of difficult personality types. It's not that I don't care about them, but I find it very taxing to be subject to their judgments and criticism, and it takes me a long time to recover. I noticed one brother (ironically, one of the most difficult family members) just doesn't come. Once in a while he'll show up at Thanksgiving--the easiest holiday; no gifts and it's just one day. Wise. Skip it, OP. If there are people you care about, try to meet them one-on-one in a place you'd like to visit anyway![/quote]
