38-year-old refuses to host Thanksgiving dinner for 20 guests this year, causing major rift in family: 'I’m tired of being treated like their personal chef'

As Thanksgiving approaches, countless family members across the country are clenching their jaws and growing more and more tense about the logistical and social pressures of impending family gatherings.

Here, we have a 38-year-old woman who has been hosting Thanksgiving dinner for her 20-person extended family every year for the majority of the last decade. She used to enjoy these hosting responsibilities, but as time went on, she became resentful of the complete lack of support she received from her guests. No help cooking, no help organizing, no help cleaning up, etc. After several years of this annual ordeal, she decided to announce to her extended family that this year, "enough is enough."

One can imagine how her ungrateful family responded to the news. Let's just say that people do not seem to be communicating with each other at the moment.
