It’s ok to cut out a family member.

Better off and free to grow than the toxic influence you try to avoid. It can be liberating. I say from a child perspective that always tried to please her parents 🫣

You are brave!

My approach was always to ignore the hard conversations and adjust, but as an older adult I am less willing to do that. It seems the issue just festers inside and never gets resolved.

Thank you Karen!!! You are wise beyond your years -- maybe you get that from your Momma!!

Fortunately, I don't have to make any of the hard choices. I am lucky!!
