Do you celebrate Thanksgiving with your family and are there do’s and don’t do?

Question

OlderAndWiser · Accepted Answer

My younger brother and our wives always get together with our mother and step-father for Thanksgiving. My mom is 94 so we don't expect her to prepare any food. We have done our gatherings at her house previously but will have dinner at my new home this Thanksgiving. The mean is fairly standard.

Since it is at my home, I intend to start a tradition this year. After dinner, I will ask the rest of the family to help me set up and decorate our new Christmas tree and decorations.

Yes I sure do... do show up with gratitude for the love and inclusiveness only family showers you with. Be grateful if you have this close bond with them throughout the year and you can show them your personal gratitude on this dedicated day.

Don't bring up toxic things (drama inducing vomit) that you could bring up any other time of the year.

Be helpful and be hungry. haha

Yes I do

RandomGirl42 · Answer

Oh yes, we have a very large Thanksgiving gathering. And there seem to be a lot of "don'ts" but they all seem to be specifically directed at me for some odd reason, "Random! Don't do that!"

Anyway, at least I get to sit at the grownup table this year! 🦃

AgentG111 · Answer

I do, but for most of my working adult life I've worked the holidays and I have made arrangements with family or kids and grandkids to have time set aside. It's the fact of making sure you have a day or time set aside. When you work 12s or out of town or when your Sons are active duty. Any day can be a holiday.

I used to. We had no does and don’ts. They have all passed away now so holidays are just me anymore.

No, never did. Even growing up in the USA, I never did. By the sounds of things, it seems I didn't miss out on much.

Wiredone · Answer

We have a small family. The last 2 thanksgivings we spent it up by my wife and I cooked the whole dinner. This year she is now home, thank God, so we'll be home but I think I'll still be cooking dinner

Thanksgiving and Christmas best holidays ever@

Ironco · Answer

I used to, but sadly I don't have any family left.  I'll either do something with friends, or maybe bartender so others can hangout with their families. Or just have dinner with my cat.

I have a large family Thanksgiving gathering. Usually over 20 people.  The main DO is "DO have a good time" The main DON'T is "Don't get your dessert at the same time you fix your dinner plate"
