Luckily, you've got this inclusive guide full of supportive tips for making your way through the holidays with minimal stress and maximum understanding. Each section illustrates common scenarios, conflicts, and solutions with real-life examples, and emphasizes considerate planning, negotiating expectations, and ensuring everyone has a chance to voice their preferences and priorities (for example, this couple's parameters for gift-giving: "food, beverages, booze, or weed"). Whether you have multiple partners, your partner does, or even if you're monogamous, you can enjoy whatever holidays you choose to celebrate or find yourself obliged to participate in with the help of this zine.
