I've been trying but it feels like none of it has made it through. It's so much harder when your family/friends are in another country.

Fair play to you for trying. I guess it's easier for someone to dismiss your arguments if you are not phsyically present. I can relate to a degree. But being a voice of reason is important. They have so many more voices telling them otherwise. What other tools can we use?
