Scenario

When family members have competing needs in shared community spaces

The community center where my mom and I both take different classes has become awkward because she wants to introduce me to all her friends and I just want to work out in peace. We're both trying to use the same space for different kinds of connection and it's starting to feel suffocating.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
