Relatives not greeting while visiting

MY relatives won't greet us or talk to us when I visit MY GRANDMOTHER who stays in their house.What to do ?

 It's a really difficult situation when you're visiting family and feel ignored or unwelcomed by some relatives. Here's what you can do:

1. Focus on Your Grandmother: Since your primary reason for visiting is your grandmother, make her your priority. Engage with her warmly, spend quality time, and ensure she feels your love and attention. Your positive interaction with her is the most important part of your visit.

2. Manage Interactions with Other Relatives:

• Acknowledge, but don't force: Offer a polite greeting (e.g., "Hello," "Good to see you") when you arrive or pass by. If they don't respond, don't press it. You've extended the courtesy.
• Don't take it personally: Their behavior often has more to do with their own issues or dynamics than with you. Try to detach emotionally and remember that their actions don't define your worth.
• Keep busy and engage elsewhere: Focus on conversation with your grandmother, other welcoming relatives, or even a book or activity if things get too quiet. Don't sit around waiting for them to engage you.
• Set boundaries if necessary: If their unfriendliness escalates to rudeness or hurtful comments, you can calmly say something like, "I'm here to visit Grandma, and I'd prefer a peaceful environment," or simply remove yourself from the immediate vicinity.
• Shorten visits if needed: If the atmosphere becomes consistently uncomfortable, it's okay to make your visits shorter or less frequent to protect your own well-being.

Ultimately, you can't control their behavior, but you can control your response and protect your peace of mind. Prioritize your bond with your grandmother and minimize the impact of the unwelcoming relatives.
