So far our lot have not hassled us over anything. They will ask us what we are doing for Christmas and, if we say we want to stay on our own, they are fine with that, if we want to go to one of them (providing none of the grandchildren are filling the beds) that is ok too. We are blessed with very laid back children. When daughter was widowed she didn't want to celebrate the first Christmas on her own, in fact no tree or decorations went up at all. But she did want us there with her. |

My lott seem to think that we, as mature septuragenarians(??) that we should be actively "downsizing" |

I believe in karma, it has happened to one of them, extremely severe but if she hadn't been so horrible to us we would have helped her out again, I can't be kind to them and I didn't know I could hate anyone as much as I do them. |

Be kind to them, don't sink to their level, being kind to them will make them feel worse. Tee-hee! |

Anninglos, they are need jealous, both divorced one remarried, the other been kicked out of martial home and literally had only what she stood up in, we helped her out financially and emotionally more than once, she now lives alone as far as I know but don't care. |

I know how you feel....Over the past few months my family and my best friend all of a sudden think they know what's best for me...They are making me feel quite inadequate...I am quite angry about it...The black clouds in my head don't seem to want to go away....The latest thing is I'm expected to go with them all up north for Christmas...Quote ""I'm sure the neighbour]s will look after the cat for you""...WHAT?? It's Christmas for *** sake,,I can't expect other people to run about after my cat then...I'm staying at home and they don't like it...Hard cheese...Now I've had my little rant as well... :-| :-| LES... |

You rant away Zzzz if it helps. As Shirley says think twice before giving help next time, you are obviously happy in your marriage, maybe they are jealous. |

The arrogance of family, 3 of which think I should apologise to them because I didn't get a divorce when they say I shoiuld, we have been married 39 years and they have hated him all that time but taken advantage of our hospitality when they desperately needed help, I hope they are holding their breath waiting cos they will die and get no apology from us. |
