Yes. They will get a slap upside the head from me. I will not tolerate this. No guest should have to be put through this, let alone teens. I told her we WILL have a very merry Christmas whether my parents are on board with it or not. If they want to be Bah Humbugs then they can. WE are not.

I feel so bad my parents are such self-absorbed, selfish bitter people. Thankfully, I am not. I have far less money and belongings than they do and I am still going to find a way to make this a wonderful, joyful holiday for us all.
GOOD FOR YOU - that's the attitude. Show 'em a celebratory Christmas!

And how could your parent's even claim they don't celebrate when they have every year? They sound off - like really off. Something's not right.
