Personally, I have learned to stand my ground, but others either seem stressed out or just resigned to live in fear of their own family.

How about you?

I step on egg shells.

Those type of people need to be stranded out to sea for a week.

People is where they get their power. On the ocean who they gunna bully? The waves?

Yeah, let them get mad. My response when they do is, “what are you 4?”

I was an angry girl raised by angry parents that like to play favorites and compare us siblings (they felt rivalry created smarter children). We have never had a problem calling each other out or airing our grievances, we can be downright rude to each other, but we are so used to it no one hold grudges and if anyone of us decided we wasn't going to talk to another member of the family then we would be mocked incessantly.
I used to snap quickly but diffuse quickly, i was nicknamed "hothead" but since i had kids it takes a lot longer for me to reach boiling point. My slightly older sister was always the calmer (master manipulator and parents favorite) but since shes had kids shes constantly snapping and on edge. Crazy how we evolve.
