[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this needs some caveats about abuse etc. There are legit reasons to cut off family. But assuming they're just annoying, yes, agree.[/quote] Yes. My parents have yhr hsual irritations of old people. My mom tells the same stories over and over again and can be unpredictably judgmental about weird things and my dad is often super grumpy and they often Cato at each other about dumb things. We often spend holidays with them. My MIL is, on the face, really nice and normal. But she was apparently very emotionally abusive to her kids when they were growing up and I literally can’t stand spending time with her. My spouse gets really weird around her — shuts down entirely, is very stiff, but gets incredibly angry at me if I say anything about the whole weird dynamic. I’m not gojng yo ruin my kids holidays with that.[/quote]
