Sister Kicked Out on Thanksgiving : Was it Justified?

Thanksgiving is a time for family, food, and gratitude, but for one family, it turned into a dramatic showdown. The protagonist’s 16-year-old son was recently diagnosed with an eating disorder, making this year’s Thanksgiving particularly challenging. With COVID-19 in mind, the family decided to keep the celebration small, inviting only the protagonist’s parents and her sister. The sister, who became a vegan during quarantine, was asked not to discuss food in any context, including her vegan lifestyle. However, things took a turn for the worse when the sister couldn’t resist making a comment about her tofu being better than the turkey.
