All happy families are alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in it’s own way
leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina
I am once again joined by Laura to do a bit of a different episode. We talk about families that we would not be caught dead (or possibly) social distancing with. We have some claustrophobic scenarios, a lot of toxic people and frightening possibilities. Which of these families would have you running away?
