Is it just me or are families bloody hard work?

Not just kids and partners but extended families and especially step families.
The dynamics in our family are crazy especially during Easter break.
Ugggrrr...i want to be a hermit!

Yes! Haha, we holiday abroad for Xmas just have to grin and bear it through Easter. I am sure some step families get along, but my DH'S father is just about to get married for the fourth time , with a whole new family attached. Effectively we've spent Easter with people we've either met for the first time or met before once or twice. Exhausting for all, especially when you throw in a few under fives in the mix ...in one small house 😳😫

Yes, that’s why I try and avoid mine as much as possible

Oh gosh...4th time! I mean i love my family but they drive me nuts!

Yes, we had my parents over for lunch yesterday and every conversation I started led to a dead end. We just spent most of the afternoon in awkward silence!
