To be a bit confused by my BIL and SIL

[violetbluesky]

About 2 and a half years ago my DH and I had a disagreement with his sister and her DH over something very minor.

I didn't think it was a big deal nor did my husband but SIL and BIL deleted and blocked us from social media I'm not a huge user of social media and it took a while to figure out what they'd done and other than think it was a bit childish I didn't really think much of it. We are now back on speaking terms and are friendly with each other when we're in each other's company and have been for a long time. I've never really thought much more about the social media blocking and as I don't use it much I didn't realise we were still blocked.

Anyway, here's my AIBU. A friend of mine who is friends with my DH's sister has told me that they post pictures of my DD9 and DS7 on their social media pages along with pictures of their own DD10

I find it strange that they post pictures of my kids without asking permission and we can't see these pictures as we're still blocked I'm not an avid user so perhaps I'm the one who's strange but I don't think I'd be posting pictures of other people's children, particularly if I hadn't asked their parents and blocked them!

Btw I am 40 and I realise I sound like I'm 15....but I just don't get it.

I've also NC for this.

I take your point on that one mummmy

But do you not think it's off to block someone on social media and continue to post pictures of their children without asking permission?

It depends a bit on how you feel about your children's pics being available online. If you feel strongly about it. I didn't want pics of my dd online gratuitously, but as part of a school thing or similar, I didn't mind.

Do the chatty bit and then drop it in, if you're not that bothered. Otherwise, have a word, straightly but not aggressively iyswim.

I think since the Op is now friends with them, they have forgotten they are blocked.

The simple answer normally is the right one.
