Dr. Helen,

What a shame that you received so many discouraging responses! Admittedly, we have a few disagreements in our family, but luckily, we have never gotten to any extremes.

Be encouraged! In the heart of CA, there is a family with four children (with spouses) and many grandchildren who all get together and except for one lazy brother-in-law, we all like and respect each other and have a great time on Thanksgiving.

Here’s hoping to all who have “problem children” in their family that they can focus unselfishly on their family members who are pleasant and politely ignore those who have the bad manners to rile everyone else up!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
