Dear Amy: Every year my extended family meets for a summer reunion.
But I can see this going badly for Ash.I’m unsure of why you are “petrified” by these relatives, but I assume that you are at the very least concerned for “Ash” regarding the reactions of extended relatives who haven’t been in personal contact for a while.
Speaking as an involved aunt, I believe that one advantage of this position in the family is that you have known the younger person’s parents since childhood. You can convey just enough familiarity to decode some family traits, and just enough distance to offer perspective and non-judgmental friendship.
If being kind, friendly, and compassionate toward a young family member is “stirring the pot” in your family, then Ash might be experiencing abuse — at home or elsewhere. I hope you will make sure that Ash knows about the Trevor Project ; they offer 24/7 support through a chat function .I recently bought a modest second home that has two bedrooms and two bathrooms.
