Families and the holidays - yikes

Congratulations on finding a good solution to the problem. It sounds like this is a win-win for everyone (and hopefully everyone will behave themselves)

Things have changed over the years. We still have black sheep in the family though.

Growing up, the worse was my step-cousin who would coach her children into stealing stuff from mine and my sisters rooms. Anything that was worth pawning or money from our purses. We knew it was her but could never prove it. So we always spent days hiding what was important to us and our purses before the family arrived. Sad.

She was finally told not to come and I haven't seen her in years.
