Wife going from NY. Will dwarf the inauguration march.
Little worried for her. Stay in the pack, I am telling her.

I think my sister might go. I think my mom might go to the Inauguration, but I haven't really talked to her since November.
If this means what I think it means, that's too bad.
It means exactly what you think it means, and it sure is. Phone works both ways though, so what are you gonna do?

Act like an adult and not be childish like your parents? Be the bigger man? Forgive and understand they're still your parents. Remember that love trumps hate.

Because if there's someone who should preach about taking the high road, it's you.
Yeah, I get that, it just sucks to hear that. This ain't that big a deal.
Sorry man. I was able to dodge a lot of the political conversation with my dad and stepmom over the holidays. When I talked to my dad over Christmas, he mentioned how people were allowed to say Merry Christmas again now that Trump was going to be president, like people were getting arrested for doing it at some point. Took everything I had to not take the bait.It means exactly what you think it means, and it sure is. Phone works both ways though, so what are you gonna do?
You're probably not in a position to say what is or isn't a big deal with anyone's family but your own. It's like telling someone with depression to "just get over it." You don't know what has lead to this or happened since.

Meh. Haven't really noticed too much different in my life without the weekly phone arguments. My folks never really prioritized spending time with family when it wasn't convenient for them anyway. I imagine that probably changes if/when my wife and I finally have kids, but at that point, I will want to intentionally keep a little more distance. I have no interest in raising my children with those sorts of values.
Well, that sucks. But if it's really that toxic and making you miserable I can see where you're coming from. Just remember it might not be entirely on them. To deny them time with their grandchild seems especially cruel.
I'll keep my sympathies to myself in the future. Thanks, hero. Thank God you were here to save the day.
