Hi ,
Am new here and just wondered if I am normal to feel put out by this ?
Met DH 18 months after wife left him with two kids , now 8 years ago.
Have SS 22 (who lives with DH and I and always has done ) SD 20 who now lives with her mother. Always have got on great with both Skids - never any issues with them.
Now DH and I have 2 YO DD, who both Skids love dearly.
However ex- wife refuses to have DD in her home ( she allowed Skids to take DD there once just to see her) - DD is simply not welcome there and SD has advised that she asked her mother to explain why she felt like that about her baby sister - Mother apparently said "I dont know why I feel like that - I just do !"<br /> <br /> However my sister recently had a DD and asked my SD to be Godmother (as I said Skids , myself, my family etc all get along famously ). Said God daughter (my niece) is most welcome at Ex
s home to the extent that at only nine months has spent the night there ! SD and her mother babysat my niece overnight ! Then enjoyed a full days shopping outing with them the next day !
I feel really annoyed that my niece is extremely welcome , but my DD is not !
I know that I shouldnt let it bother me but as sis and I are so close , DD and niece are together almost daily I can
t help thinking that before long DD will ask how her cousin can go and she can`t ??
I know I am being silly and sensitive but feel a bit better at writing this down- thanks for taking the time to read this far !
Am I over sensitive ??
