So, they brought their frictions with them to a visit with Stor圜orps in Boston.
Like so many families this year, their arguments about politics have taken a toll on their relationship. 'So maybe the answer is we don't watch the news while you're there,' Peter laughs. Whereas Jenn would prefer to pretend simply that it isn't happening, to let the news play on and wait silently for the subjects on screen to reach safer shores, Peter prefers to speak up. That's because Jenn, a 29-year-old writer and a liberal, doesn't exactly see eye to eye with her father, Peter - who works in construction and is conservative. 'But you always watch the 5 o'clock news, and the minute any politician steps on - it doesn't matter who it is - I just cringe.' Jenn Stanley tries not to bring up politics when she returns home to visit her father.
