[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 387684, member: 1233"] I will likely tell my folks that we will be at my inlaws for Thanksgiving. Whether we are or are not. I am just NOT up to the drama of negotiating a turkey day meal with my folks without my brother. Because my mother will make SURE to let me know she got upset enough to vomit because she worried that I would get mad and make a scene if gfgbro "dropped by". ANd my spidey senses are telling me that if she follows past patterns the next step is an ambush meeting with gfgbro to "work it out" or a lovely letter about how I am so abusive and awful to everyone in the family. Moving away didn't work the last time we tried. They would come to visit for a few weeks at a time and get upset by stuff at least every 5-6 months, regardless of what we did or didn't do. They also send boxes and boxes and boxes of stuff because they "miss" the kids. If we DON"T give it all to the kids then they tell the kids to ask us for it or to go find it in whatever area we hid it in. If anything the merry go round was worse when we lived out of state because they had to prove how much they "missed" us. hence my desire to be an orphan. NOT that I want them to die. I truly do NOT.
