New survey reveals that a quarter of adults seek solitude in a relative’s home during a holiday gathering.
Two in five people say that getting together with family for the holidays is almost always a stressful time.
You always remember how things were and forget how they weren’t. The aunt you cared so much for turns out to be a nasty old biddy. The uncle you looked up to is a drunk. Oh, and that cute second cousin is a fat blob with three bratty kids.
Oh how much fun we have.
The average survey respondent will stay with their family for a total of three and a half days, and a big reason why most don’t stay longer is the sleeping situation. Most of this sleeping stress is derived from a lack of space; the survey found an average of two holiday house guests each year will end up sleeping on something that isn’t a bed.
