It’s wild how families will tiptoe around the most toxic person just to “keep the peace.”

But let’s be real…

That peace?
It’s not for everyone.
It’s just to keep them comfortable,
while everyone else silently suffers.

Because real peace doesn’t come from walking on eggshells.
It doesn’t come from avoiding conflict, pretending everything’s fine, or sweeping pain under the rug.

Real peace is when everyone feels safe.
Heard.
Respected.
Not just the one who yells the loudest or gets mad the fastest.

Stop calling dysfunction “peace.”
That’s just fear dressed up as family unity.
