[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]sooooo stay home and do your own thing with your nuclear family? it's not rocket science.[/quote] So your answer is to ignore the part of the family OP does want to see. And you said it like a snooty asshole. Gee, thanks, PP.[/quote] Meh. Everyone has in laws or relatives they don't click with and would rather spend every holiday with their family BFFs and exclude the rest, but that's not how life or family work. For anyone. OP is holding onto a fantasy of what children of intact families experience during holidays. But the reason everyone has trouble with the holidays is they all ratchet up the expectations and it's impossible to meet them. Why not carve out family time with your bro NOT during the holidays. Rent a beach house for a week in the summer or something. That way you're making memories with your brother and not placing all the expectations on the holidays. [/quote]
