Could really do with some helpful advice. My step children only see their mum every other weekend. It's come to the point where the kids don't want to go over to hers at all due to how she acts around them. She never listens, talks about herself, doesn't take them anywhere (these are the things the kids have told me) Recently their mum wanted to take them away on holiday to Spain but the day she wanted to take them is the day we fly back from holiday ourselves. She messaged my SD whilst at school (to ask about the dates we go away on holiday even though my other half had told her the previous day) She kept calling and texting my SD and found my SD rather rude which she was not, she only text her to say she is at school speak later.
The whole thing got even more heated after school and in the end her mum disowned her, told my SD that she had had enough of her disrespectful attitude, that I am her mother now and she shouldnt bother to see her ever again. My SD just text back "fine"
It's been 3 weeks since then and my SC are meant to see their mum this weekend. She messaged my other half yesterday to make sure they are coming over but my SD doesn't want to go due to what was said 3 weeks ago and she hasn't received an apology. Also her mum blocked her number and from all social media channels too!
Myself and my other half have been trying to solve this and informed her the kids don't want to see her because of what happened but she thinks that my SD should apologise to her.
I have no idea what to do! Whatever we suggest my other half is met with abuse, she is very unreasonable and thinks everyone else is in the wrong but not her.
Advice would be ever so helpful!
