In today's Dear Annie column, Annie Lane offers advice to a reader who is fed up that the majority of relatives continue to post political messages in the family group text despite repeated requests that they stop.

My family is divided politically and religiously. A dominant larger group is cohesive in their views, and I’m polar opposite. A few are neutral. Because we live all over the country, we keep in touch via texting to share birthday greetings and family news.

It bothers me on many levels, because what started as an inclusive family text thread is being used to further divide our family. Several weeks ago, yet another political message came to the group text, and I hit the roof. I chastised the sender, reminding her yet again that I had repeatedly asked to not be part of these messages. A minute later, she wrote “So sorry” on the text thread, saying she accidentally used the wrong message group.

She hasn’t reached out to me individually, and she must have thought that her group text apology was enough. I removed myself from the large family text thread to avoid it happening again.
