I have previously responded and they’re just asking the same questions again and making things really unpleasant.

I just want to have a civil discussion and understanding but I fear it won’t be a reasonable discussion given how it’s getting more aggressive or passive aggressive.

It was probably triggered by the hot water breaking down.

I finally started to make good on a promise slowly and I guess I’m getting the messages because they’re not happy with it.

Aw man if you've done what you can to answer their questions, it's totally fair to just time out and get back to your life at least for today. Boundaries are hard to draw with family but you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes :(
