Sometimes the disagreements are in the open and sometimes it is hidden among the response of the people.
Obligation
You may feel obligated to attend because of your parents and tradition.
You may feel that you must talk to your family members and do not feel that you have anything in common.
Each time your family members see each other it is like pulling teeth.
You may find that as you step in the door of your parent’s home you take on the same role that you had with your family members before you left.
You may notice that your family members insist to hold you to that role although you attempt to get out of that role.
Your partner may join in and support the role your other members assigned you or they may stay out of it because they have heard you complain about it often.
Complaining
You may use their partner in life to help you to continue to complain, blame, or justify your point of view of why you are acting that way.
For some, why or what was the problem and how did it get started may not be remembered, you just remember you are not getting along and may remind yourself not to forget just before you enter your parents home.

Become a hero to yourself and heal the wound that you have been carrying around for many years.
What do you want to be remembered for, your ability to be right or your ability to make peace?
Conclusion: You can continue to blame your family member for the rest of your life for what and how you act with each other or you can choose to heal and allow yourself to be the person you always wanted to be by your new behaviour.
