Escape the drama, cut off toxic family members. You deserve better!

“NTA and this is the gift you give: a box with magic cards, comics and every other shared interest you and your brother have. Maybe top it of with a photo book. He may hate it, but it’s a last ditch effort before the wedding. Make sure he opens it away from her if you can. I don’t care what you give her as long as you wrap it in a shoe box.”
