Family Shouldn't Get a Pass for Bad Behavior

Family doesn’t exempt anyone from accountability, and it doesn’t make harmful behavior okay.In this episode, we talk about why blind loyalty to relatives can lead to tolerating behavior you’d never accept from anyone else, and why so many people end up excusing things they should be setting boundaries around.This is episode 5 of Editing Reality, a series about the excuses we make for disrespect, inconsistency, and people who repeatedly show us exactly who they are. After a certain point, "trying to understand" becomes avoiding the truth.
