Ugh. What would you do? My husband and I got into an argument this morning because I told him if this illness does social distancing isn’t over by Easter we’re not going to his families Easter.
He got mad and said he doesn’t agree with that.
We would still go to my families because it’s only my parents and sister and tbh we’re all going back and forwards during all this because we spend so much time together anyways.
He got super mad about it. But his parents aren’t taking this seriously and his sibling works in a hotel with the public.
What would you do?

I’d honestly not even be discussing things like this right now... wait and see no point to be arguing about IFs at this point by Easter everyone could be on mandatory lockdown or things could be getting better. Stressing and causing conflict with each other for no reason. Also if you aren’t going to one you can’t go to the other that beats the whole social distancing doesn’t matter if it’s one person or twenty five your not suppose to socialize with anyone outside your household.

I totally see where you're coming from. This is such a difficult time... I wouldn't go anywhere just because we all need to stay put. Maybe try to acknowledge your husbands needs and viewpoint in this situation. But what you said makes sense. Your family is around anyways.

Like massgirl said. I’d cancel both families...bc honestly it’s just not worth it. But you also can’t say you’re okay with seeing your family but he cannot see his. That’s not right. Cancel both or go to both. It’s can’t be one or the other.

@maddoxsmama, if you feel that strongly on not seeing his family, you shouldn’t go see yours that day either. Marriage is a partnership..you have to think of the others feelings. My in laws are pretty shitty but they are my husbands family & they are my children’s family. When you chose to have a family with your husband, you chose to have his family as your children’s family. Just remember that. Your feelings aside, thats still his family & that’s still your children’s family.

@maddoxsmama, let him take the kids to his family’s house by himself. You get your break you are saying you need & he & the kids get to see his family. Win win.

hell no. My kids don’t see his family unless I’m present. My husband is far to passive. And I know if I’m not there they smoke around my kids.

I would honestly just cancel both families. I see your point but it wouldn't really be fare and it's already causing tension.

Not go. Fuck all of that. Especially if they act like it's nothing to worry about. For all y'all know they could get it and not tell anyone because it's "not serious".
States aren't saying no groups of more than 10 should gather for no reason.
