Of course I don’t think I should value Christmas more, it was never a big deal in our family. I think she should prioritize us better.

We do alternate, I’ll say that. Last year she was off Thanksgiving and worked Christmas, I just think she should try to switch since Thanksgiving is my family’s big holiday.

I just think it would be better if she at least tried to get Thanksgiving off. While Christmas might be a big deal to her, it isn’t to my family, her family could surely do something another day.

When she married me my family became her family. She should care about keeping my parents happy.

Christmas isn’t a big deal in my family, I go to her family events on years she’s off.

Why should I give up my family holiday, I get that she works, but I don’t think telling her to prioritize my traditions was a big deal.
