I really don’t understand why these conversations are so hard. Isn’t it obvious what we should do? My brother is furious with me because I said our 82yo mother should not spend Christmas Day with him and his teen kids. I suggested that I isolate with her, staying away from my husband and son for 2 weeks. She’s upset that she is having to choose between us.
Brother just spent a week deer hunting, staying at a bunkhouse with a bunch of guys. His kids are working and socializing. Maybe I am “passing judgement” (as he accuses me) on their activities, but I am also just listing the many ways they could have been exposed. The virus is so prevalent in the community right now! Why is he so determined to expose Mom?
Oh, I want to rant so I’ll stop now.
