Because not all people have toxic extended family, lol. Most of my extended family are awesome, friendly folks. I think you meant, “avoid toxic people in general,” versus, “avoid extended family specifically”?
Well yeah pretty much. It is incredibly difficult for some though to come to that realization and apply it to family, because there’s so much pressure put on family relationships that nearly all abuse will be overlooked when if the people weren’t family they’d never choose to interact or ever get along. The arbitrary family connection causes years of pointless suffering.
