Profane

On this particular occasion the family meeting was not to plan the normal annual celebrations during which sons and daughters parade their wealth rather than family re-union, or announce which son or daughter was being given out into marriage to a wealthy person, doctor, career diplomat etc. which normally is the case. This time round the family is faced squarely in the face with an issue that everyone wants to hear but in private and which many people would very much love to be dissociated with.
