I feel for you, Angela. This must be so hard, when family members add to the mix of already crazy MLC behavior. It must be hard on the kids too. I remember when my parent had a dispute about going to grandma’s for a holiday dinner. My Mom put a show that she didn’t want to be there and everybody else was trying to convince her to stay. I was in another room crying. I could not understand what was going on and why everybody could not just agree and have a happy family time. I wanted to fix it so badly, but didn’t know how. I think I was about 10.

Would your kids feel better if they stay with you for Christmas? Especially that it is your B-day too.
