Dear Amy: I’m the youngest of three siblings. My two brothers live a couple of states away from our parents, who are in their 80s. I live the farthest away, on the opposite coast.
I well remember those first Zoom cocktail parties in the early days of the pandemic; virtual connection opened up so many possibilities — and then our human tendency toward tedium set in.
I suggest contacting both of your brothers to express your concerns regarding these virtual meetings. I honestly feel as though there is a point at which knowing or understanding true parenthood is harmful to relationships.I would like to offer my entire disapproval and negation of your opinions in this matter. I ultimately respect your viewpoints, but if the greater overall good is to benefit from ignorance, as it relates to family relationships, I do feel as though ignorance is bliss.
