How would that work if they have a toxic family and decided to kill 2 birds with one stone?

I mean if the CCP threatened my family while I'm abroad, I'd just go: "Lol go ahead, idgaf. They're toxic anyways. Thanks for getting rid of them for me." ๐Ÿ˜Ž

But too bad my toxic family is already here and I had to endure their abuse. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

That does assume that person's with a toxic FOO have been able to emotionally distance themselves from them.

That's a tall order.

I mean I have some pretty toxic family members as well, but at least a few of them are decent or innocent people. Pretty much everyone is going to have at least one family member that they care about even if most are shit heads.
