Do I invite anti vaxer in laws for Xmas!?

Granted, Boris might cancel Xmas after we've bought everything we need, but we have to plan anyway, as much for the kids and sanity.

My other half is insisting on his anti vaxer mum coming, because she missed out last year. She's 70 plus and really should know better. One of our kids wants her here, the other doesn't want to feel guilty if they unknowingly gave it to and she died.

To top it all, she still thinks everything would have been better if Corbyn was PM or even better his anti vax brother. I'm at my wits end, I can't win as someone will be put out, we've tried for a year now in convincing her to be jabbed, it's a lost cause.

If it wasn't near impossible I'd fly abroad for Xmas!
Thanks for listening, I know there's no clear solution. G

I wouldn’t be happy to have her in the house for the day as she would be a risk to me. I don’t think other people’s stupid decisions are my issue to overcome but to compromise with DH I’d probably accept a negative LFT.

You're right of course and I don't feel that strongly but the OP obviously does.

Jesus. I hope the apple fell very, very far from the tree in your partner's case.
