Hi,
Right now I feel like I have no one else to turn to. Sometimes I wish I were born into another family instead of the one I have. There is rarely any peace within my family. I have aunts, uncles, cousins and even a grandmother who can never seem to get along with each other. It seems as though everybody is jealous of everybody else or they are trying to out do the next person or talking behind each others back and the list goes on. It just never seems to stop. The only good thing is that me, my two brothers and my mom have a really close bond. I love my family but what can I do when no one can get along? We are all supposed to go on a family reunion in July and really don't see how that is possible if we can't stand each other. What is a person supposed to do in this situation? We seriously need help.

It's wonderful that you have a close bond with your mother and brothers.

Go to the reunion and have a great time with them and don't let the others pull you into their jealousies or petty back stabbing. Maybe they will learn something from you.

Go there with a good attitude and try to have fun, and if things get too bad, you can always leave early.
