And so, you know, when I would feel conflict coming,

I'm someone who wants to talk about it right away.

That's not how everybody feels, you know.

It's a processing time.

There's, you know, there's might be some fear in it.

And so on our family bulls and board,

I was really clear about coming

to some communication norms for our family

that would be reviewed mid-year, every year,

just the kids were growing, you know,

we're all changing and different things are going.

And initially, my mother-in-law just thought,

this is just over the top.

This is too much, right?

Did she say that to you?

Or you just felt it from her?

No, she said, this is different.

That's exactly what it means.

That means all those things.

Right.
