from where do they pop up
in so-called happy homes
unforeseen facets
of known personalities
difference of opinion
clash of interest
greed above ethics
strategic blame games
keeping it all in
is a challenge….
keeping it all in the family
is a bigger challenge
Turning points

A happy home to the outside usually looks perfect and usually is not. Well-written, Reena!

Talking about internal matters is considered criminal – be it offices or homes. I guess it keeps the faith in fairytales alive 😀😀

I like the way you’ve handled the topic and your take on the prompt word, Reena. Family relationships are complex and often difficult. I’m constantly surprised by my husband’s comments and attitudes, and we’ve been married 26 years! I am not a fan of those strategic blame games and, yes, it is one of the hardest things to keep it all in.
