I've realized that if I truly care about people I'll want them to live as freely as possible. You can't do that without the truth.

I also may have been being a bit condescending in my assessment of my family's ability to handle hard facts. I'm going to give everyone the book and see where it goes. I'm thinking only a few people will actually read it, but I feel like I've made an important discovery and I want them to at least have the chance of doing the same.

Yeah, I see where you're headed and I agree that you should give the book to all your family members. Let the chips fall where they may!

I hope they appreciate the gift.

And I hope too that you and Jen have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
