To cut a long story short
Toxic parents including bullying, mentally abusive father
relationship worse since DS although I sought counselling/ADS and have come to some kind of truce with them. We still have contact for my DS sake but more on my terms
They alternate christmas between us and other family. It has resulted in the scenario that I either work christmas (shift worker) or they come up. This year I would like a festive season where I am neither working nor enduring the stress of them being here (which I hide for DS sake but it does ruin it for me to some extent)
They might well be on their own which seems un christian but we will offer to visit them just before xmas and have a 'fake' xmas at their house with DS
Arghh the guilt and turmoil that comes with toxic parents (and they are truly toxic not just annoying)
