A 32-year-old woman explained on Reddit that her younger sister wants the family to sign a “Code of Conduct” for the holiday season. “This year, my sister decided she wanted to ‘help bring some order’ to the gathering,” the anonymous poster wrote. “She showed up at my house last week with printed copies of what she called a ‘Family Code of Conduct.” The code included Thanksgiving rules like taking turns talking at the dinner table, a ban on political topics, a dress code, and assigned seating. The poster said no to the code, which has caused disagreement. “Tell everyone else that if they’re happy about a code of conduct they’re free to attend your sister’s house,” one commenter said. “You can even sign a declaration of thanksgiving independence,” another joked.
