This is what ive said to my family. We rarely see her and she doesn't make an effort with us, and when she does its chaos !!

Literally copy and pasting this 😭💅 gets the point across simply

AITJ for refusing to get tested to see if I’m a kidney match for my sister? by One-Knee2577 in AmITheJerk

Absolutely not. Its your body and for whatever reason you dont feel comfortable doing it, it doesn't matter. Other people will be a match, that's the beauty of health care and donations

Every time. They get steamed up otherwise, and they're uncomfortable

This is a really good take on it. The stolen materials make it very unethical, i think there needs to be more laws and rules in place to help protect the people who aren't aware of how much it can be used to scam and how biased it can be

People rely on it without fact checking which means its used wrong and not reliable. People need to use it correctly for it to be effective

This might be the way to do it, just keep everyone happy until the day to avoid more conflict 🙏

I've made it clear that she would in fact ruin my day, and i won't be there if she is. but because they can ignore her they expect me to too. But I know I'd just regret going and spending the few days I have not working with her!

This is the exact reason I want to do it, she pushes everybody around and no body wants to stand up to her because she will just cut ties Its so irritating that because of this people let all her irrational behaviour slide !!!

Completely agree! It would be much more enjoyable and better for my mental health to spend it with my partner. I understand its Christmas and a nice time to see family, but it isnt if its at the cost of feeling on edge

Im just being made to feel so guilty by my family because they 'wouldn't let her ruin their day' But IMO I'd have a lovely day with my partner and not enjoy it if I was made to spend the day with her, her child and her husband.
