[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will be honest - my mom never did this until my cousin married a Jewish person and now it's "what we do every Christmas." I always keep an eye out and when my mom gets out the cake I see my cousin's wife quietly leave the room and I go with her and sit in another room and chat. She's never brought it up but I hope I bring some small comfort. [/quote] That is taking passive-aggressive bigotry to an epic level. Holy crap. [/quote] Wow, that is obnoxious. Speaking from experience, it can be very uncomfortable to be the "other" in the room during religious celebrations, even when everyone is welcoming and well-intentioned. I can't imagine how your cousin's wife feels if she knows the new "tradition" is intended to exclude her. I think you are doing something really kind by quietly and discreetly acknowledging her discomfort and offering support. [/quote]
