PIL issues

[Wordblind101]

My PILs never liked me much. I’m not happy about this, but never much liked them either, so there’s fault on both sides.
My MIL died when our children were 4, 2, and newborn. Two girls and one boy. I believe that my MIL loved them.
This was sixteen years ago. Today, my FIL explained that he gave all his wife’s jewellery to his brother’s wife. I find myself really hurt by this.
I feel like he didnt’t think of our children as family. Am I right to be hurt by this?
I am from another culture, so might be missing something?

He should have thought of your children even if he didn’t care for you. But it’s not important - maybe he was close to than at the time of his loss.

It depends on which culture. In mine the mil jewellery goes to the DILs . If you didn't get on with her it wouldn't come to you

Fair enough - I genuinely didnt expect to get anything personally, but I am hurt that our children, their grandchildren ( their only grandchildren) got nothing. I’m not fussed about value. It’s the sentiment behind it. I feel like my children are not being treated as family.
