[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think the cousins including him on group chats counts as trying to get to know him better.  Do you get to know people over group chats?  I hate the group chats I’m in for my kids’ classes even though I like the moms![/quote]

Yeah and then crazy aunt Karen berating him for being weird in not joining the TikTok or whatever is awful. Yuck!

He’s not going to engage with these people once he’s 18 so instead of wasting the next 4-5 years in aunt Karen purgatory why not have nice peaceful holidays as a small nuclear family. Go visit your parents when it’s calmer without 22 cousins and a bunch of judgmental eyeballs criticizing your kid for not engaging the way they demand. [/quote]

I think we’ve found the posters who use any reason not to spend time with family. Let me guess: you drop people from your life the minute you realize they aren’t exactly how you expect them to be. [/quote]

No I drop people who demand things just because they’re family. These people are rude, obnoxious and only getting away with acting so badly because they are playing the family card. [/quote]
