how does one deal with family members, “loved ones”, who say homophobic, transphobic, and racist things? If I call her out on it she would make sure I never see my niece and nephews again. She doesn’t even know how badly she hurts me. I’ve tried discussing it politely but it is getting worse. What should I do?
