On Wednesday's Christmas Live, we'll be tackling Christmas family friction as our dilemma of the day. Jeni and Brendan Courtney will be taking your calls and reading your emails.

Do you want to know how to avoid family fall-outs on Christmas day?

Are you worrying about how to tell your family that you don't want to spend Christmas with them this year?

Does your mother-in law drive you in mad because she tries to take over all the organisation for Christmas.

Does your mum's insistance on buying you socks for the 15th year running threaten to make you explode?

Please post your family dilemmas here. We'd love to hear about them, whatever they may be.

None of the above Jenni. My dilema is keeping my mother out of the kitchen - she will insist that at the age of 50 I still don't know how to cook - It's the I wouldn't do it that way? or the Oh no not that! and then their is my husband who will insist on doing an Ainsley - the only person I want in the kitchen with me is my youngest son who is an excellent cook and he stays well away!! Situation difused mum is going to my brother this year to see her grand-daughter open her presents!

It is Christmas Day and all family friction is cancelled.

Hi Jenny,

I find I love Christmas but my family make out that I am a little over the top, if you know what i mean, also that i get as basted as the turkey, but I do enjoy a tipple cooking the dinner, but they keep their eyes glued on me, its like I was going to do something wrong, I then lose the head later. Why can't people just be normal, its only another day.
