5 Ways to Deal with Strained Family Relationships

I think I have an unusual situation. Neither my family nor my new husband's really wants to spend time with us—not even at major holidays. My sister has two little children, so that is very sad to me, but even when I suggest coming to visit across the country to see them she is less than enthusiastic and never initiates the topic. My husband's father and mother are older, live a state away, but have never invited us to their home. We have invited ourselves, so to speak, once or twice for an overnight on our way someplace else, but it always felt a little flat or off and we promised ourselves not to do it again.

Fixing A Wrecked Relationship: It’s Easier Than You Think!

If you’re like most people, you probably consider yourself to be nice most of the time. Then you suddenly find yourself in a situation where an unimaginable monster comes out of you. Perhaps being around screaming children turns you into a beast, or sitting in rush-hour traffic transforms you into a demon your own spouse and family would be shocked to witness.

Let’s face it. You’re going to blow this "be nice" thing, and you’re going to blow it a lot. Why? Welcome to the human race! There’s no such thing as consistency in people’s thoughts, moods, behaviors, actions, personalities or characters.
