We all wait for the New Year holidays, but family feasts are waiting for us with rest, and sometimes this is the only reason to meet with relatives who have not seen a whole year. Very often, relaxing, a person ceases to control himself and even a simple question for a personal topic can grow into a grand scandal. We decided to find out what one should be avoided at the table, even if you do not see anything like that "anything."
"I would not advise you ..."
Festive feast - reason to relax and spend time in a circle of loved ones. Listen to the morals, the tips about which you did not ask, no one wants, it is not surprising that any phrase starting with "at your age / I would not recommend you ..." leads almost into rabies. If you want to share life experience, do it away from other people's ears, talk with a person alone, without attracting attention at the table when everyone is having fun.
Do not express sharply about the culinary abilities of relatives

"I would prepare better ..."
If you come to visit, especially on holidays, almost always will be placed at the table. Even if the owner is your relative, to express his negative opinion about dishes, supporting his advice on how to make it better is the worst thing that can come to mind. You may not answer, but be sure of the man offended. In order not to overshadow the New Year's day off, try to restrain, even if I really didn't like the dish - just retain it aside without comment.
"When you already ..."
Such questions, as a rule, sound at all meetings with relatives, and most often - in the direction of the younger generation. Questions about the wedding, searching for the second half, the presence or absence of children, the search for work or hobbies always put the "defendant" in an inconvenient position, and the most interested in being exposed in negative light. Remember that for many people such innocent, at first glance, the themes can be very painful, so it is so important to take into account the circumstances and try to bypass "sharp corners" with each specific person.
