An aunt updates Amy about the fraught family gathering.
Like you, I’m often curious about what happens to the advice I offer once it leaves my desk, and so I’ve asked readers to send in “updates” to let all of us know how things turned out.
My brother “Tom,” his wife and three adult children stopped attending these events a couple of years ago. This left us perplexed. We siblings reached out to Laura and to Tom, in our individual ways, with messages of support and acceptance. Tom followed up with an email explaining that this was the reason for the recent absences, as they took time to process it and to support Laura, who wasn’t yet ready to share her changes with the broader family.
