Sibling meet up

Juat looking for advice on how to approach or if I should just leave it.
I haven't seen my sibling, nieces/nephew since christmas 2023. They live close by. My DC enjoy meeting up with their cousins and play nicely together. I suggested numerous times during 2024 if they wanted to meet up and I was always told, I will check the diary, they never did or responded to me. I'm fed up with being ignored. I am in two minds to ask they what the problem is or to just leave it. We haven't had a falling out, don't know what the best thing to do is. I don't want to force anyone to have a relationship with my family if they don't want to, I think if he was bothered he would have arranged to meet up, so I guess I have answered my own question....

@Sayingitstraight

You have said it all, do you think they're less than? I wonder....

"The only thing I can think of is there might be some jealously regarding how much money we earn and what we can provide for our children

It is a good suggestion, as long as I'm paying

I know they argue alot, maybe he thinks I disapprove (which I do) but it was his choice who he married"

Does it really surprise they are not rushing to have a relationship with you?

eta, missed preposition
