[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your brother is selfish, and none of that sounds fun (dancing boxes?). Masks with holes in them will not work. And one can get married in a church without a huge reception.

I’m sorry your parents aren’t listening to reason. I hope you can get them to change their minds about participating.[/quote]

OP here- of course I’m one of the only ones in healthcare but my dad in particular is not concerned about the risk. It is SO stressful and I would never forgive my brother if something happened to my parents. [/quote]

Because he held a gun to their back and frog-marched them into the reception?

Your parents are grown-ass adults and are fully responsible for their own choices. Stop infantilizing them.[/quote]

OMG on every thread! Life is not black and white- yes, you can put someone in a "position" without physically harming them[/quote]

People can beg, cajole, threaten, pout, manipulate, wheedle, whine, and be offended all they want. But they don't put me in any position unless I allow it. The more people disregard my health, comfort, mental health, morals and choices, the more I feel free to ignore them, minimize contact, or cut them off. If Aunt Edna can't get over it that I don't attend Cousin Steve's wedding, that's HER problem. Not mine. [/quote]
