For me, it's just the "plain folk". No drama in my family, but I don't like the fact that some members think that talking about problems is like "voluteering information" (which to certain degrees, it is, but when you need to know information, like the family history of illnesses, or something serious, somebody better start talkin'!). They tend to be vague about stuff...almost like they are keeping a secret or something, which drives me batty sometimes!
And living far away helps. In my family, once you leave the general vicinity, you're almost forgotten about. Not good, but not all together bad either.
