[quote=Anonymous]You don't have to be estranged to not see relatives for the holidays. We haven't for decades. It's always been the six of us and now 10 with spouses and grandchildren. We simply live to far away from my kids' grandparents and our siblings. However, my estrangement from my narcissistic mother started in February and I've had peace in my life since. I should have done it years earlier, the moment she demanded loyalty from me to not have a relationship with my dad, who she divorced 50 years ago. I'll never allow that to happen in a personal relationship again. Why people (including me) put up with this kind of thing for years because "family" is beyond me. It's not a trend. It's an awakening.[/quote]
