Spending time with family — whether it's your immediate or extended family — during the holiday season can be quite stressful for some.
Some people even make the big decision to go no-contact with their family to avoid any uncomfortable moments that might come up — like difficult family conversations.
I'm turning to the BuzzFeed Community to ask: What's your go-to method for dealing with difficult family conversations around the holiday table?
Maybe you're fed up with your aunt bringing up the fact that you're single so you've come up with a strategy to shut down any uncomfortable questions she might ask.
Perhaps you dread when your family talks politics and you've prepared a straight-to-the-point answer for when they pick your brain about your view on things going on in the world.
Or maybe you have a method of entirely removing yourself from a difficult family conversation so you don't have to engage or be around for it.
Whatever your helpful method is — share it with the rest of us in this anonymous form or in the comments below!
