Perfect advice Diana. Thank you. This is exactly what I am planning. My only worry really is that my negative feelings about this will show through at some point. Other than that, I am okay with this, for the reasons you said.. I want to keep the peace, and the money is going to my family.
I also was raised like you Gayle. Family does for each other, and hanging a fan
is just another family activity, usually followed by food. This is foreign to me, and makes me feel displaced a bit. I would never charge them, for example, for watching their dog. Families do for each other, as do good friends. I must say that I am glad I don't come from his planet.
