Vacation Standoff: A Family Feud in the Making?
Caught between her desire for a peaceful family vacation and the pleas of her husband to include their troubled niece, our vacation planner stands her ground. She refuses to let her vacation turn into a therapy session for her niece, despite the outrage from her sister-in-law. The question remains, is she being unnecessarily harsh or just protecting her family’s peace? Let’s see how the internet weighs in on this family feud…
