hi there, thanks for asking. It is good to talk with a psychologist, a counselor or a psychiatrist in this regard. They may suffer from negative thoughts about the other people. It is depressant for those people who have it and also for their family. It is recommended not to oppose with their idea when they mention some points because it can cause more distance between you and them. That would not be good for them. A psychologist can help them to gradually accept an alternative way of thought. I wish you and the family a good health.
