thanks guys
this side of the family is the black hole of dysfunction. few years back an uncle of mine passed away and there was a shouting match at the wake. it gets so bad I don't even bother telling my friends about deaths in the family, and those who know and wants to pay their respect I tell them not to bother. oh, and wednesday night, after I left the hospital, I believe they made a commotion- arguing and shouting right by my grandmother's beside. damn this family to hell indeed.
so what did you do for him to think about blackmailing you? and have you considered getting outside help to uhm, "convince" him to keep his mouth shut for the sake of his kneecaps or something?
I showed the girls pics of crack heads with disgusting teeth and told them this is what happens when you don't take of your teeth... seems to work for now.
That sucks, acid. The bickering surrounding death can be horrible. We went through something similar a couple of years ago when my grandmother died. I just wanted to tell everyone to STFU with their drama and remember why we were all there.
I hope it doesn't get too bad for your family.

A family member is attempting to blackmail me, over what i don't know. I don't understand how people who see you less than 10 times a year cant maintain a decent relationship at least just for appearances. I'm really beginning to believe that some people just enjoy drama. I try to weed out the negative people in my life, but with having a relatively small family its tough to do that with out just cutting everyone off

he is actually having a tooth removed, and i think 2 others filled. ill pass on the video. toothbrushing is now in my job description as my wife has a harder time fighting with him to do it. she is too nice.
at one point i actually told him that he would not be allowed any treats anymore if he would not brush. he said, fine. i lol'ed and backpedaled, was not expecting him to say that. it took a few more tactics but i think we have it down now.
