Thanksgiving Family Feuds: Truth Or Turkey Day Myth?

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - With the turkey comes opinions, and with opinions, possible long time family feuds erupt.

So what do people fight about on Thanksgiving?

"Macaroni and cheese."

"Money."

"Doing dishes."

"Basting the turkey."

"Babysitters."

These are just some of things people say they fight about with their loved ones.

And for one family who drove from Boston, it was a Thanksgiving miracle you could say...

"We even traveled with our freshman college student cramped into our car with his little sister and brother and there was no fighting."

But when it comes to taking pictures, and there's some resistance, mom has a trick for that: 20 bucks for peaceful pictures:

" I said if they complain, they get no money. And it's great. Selfies, family shots around the dinner table, no argument."

Most people who spoke with KYW Newsradio, the say Thanksgiving was a great night this year.
