What can we do about a hostile family member?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consider all options: I'm going to assume that you are not forced to live with this individual. Frank talk is often best. Some people can change if approached tactfully & kindly. If this is a person who's unable to follow a moral code or consider the feelings of others, it's about harm reduction. Families do best when people teach instead of criticize and remember that relationships are more important than being right.
