Sooooo I need to vent here..... And I'm trying to see other moms view on this. My husbands family, mother and every one on that side hasn't seen my sons since was youngest was born 7 months ago, and my oldest since he was 1 1/2. My oldest is 2 now and he had his birthday party in Feb and no one came form his side or said a word, so I have finally said enough is enough and said she my husbands mother and his family aren't going to be able to be in there life's if they haven't seen or heard form them. I'm just trying to protect my boys. Espically my oldest where he is at the stage where he realizes who's in his life or not.
Okay good I was just making sure I wasn't just making some big mess out of things
I agree with @slk620, it's their loss if they don't try to see or communicate with him. It will also drain you to constantly try to involve them. If they really wanted to see him they would try to make an effort.
Yup I agree there's no reason why family should be in & out of their lives it's not fair to the children.
My son's father and I are divorced, but his family was and still is that way with our son. Honestly, it's their loss-in both of our situations. My son has plenty of other people who will love and be there for him for the rest of their lives, and I'm sure your boys do too! I just don't understand people, but it is what it is I suppose.
I agree with you. I'm being the same way with Violet right now. My boyfriends dad and one of his sisters & my brother and sister in law don't ever see how she's doing now or ask about her or anything. I told my boyfriend straight up that they aren't concerned about her while she's in my belly, then they won't be around when she's born. I'm not going to have people in and out of her life whenever they please, I'm not going to put her through that and have her growing up thinking that she's the reason they don't want to be around her.
Thank you all for your advice
