Nieces and nephews not invited to wedding.

[EugenieGreen]

I want to ask my brother why he hasn’t asked my children to his wedding, not ask for an invitation for them, it is his wedding but I want to know why they are not invited and if he considered them. What does he think of them?

Right I have three children, almost adults, youngest is 16. My sister has 2 who are slightly younger. All well behaved.

I was very upset when my husband’s brother did not invite my kids to his wedding 17 years ago.

Now my own brother is getting married for a second time ( SiL’s first trip down the aisle). His children are obviously invited who are same age as mine give or take).

No money is being spared and space is not an issue.

Who they invite is up to them so all I want to do is ask him why he doesn’t want his nieces and nephews there. Do they mean nothing to him?

I think if someone doesn’t invite his sister’s children to his 50th party
and then seems utterly indifferent when you say that in that case… you won’t be attending either
It is fairly reasonable to speculate that maybe he didn’t at all regard his relationship with his sibling as close or one he cherished?

If the nephews and nieces were so unpleasant, then the B or G likely has zero relationship with their parents and wouldn’t invite them anyway.

Anyway, this scenario doesn’t apply here, the uncle gets on well with the teens.

Or maybe he wanted a companion?

It’s not odd, she uses MN for the purpose it’s intended for and this type of situation is clearly a point of sadness for her.

You are free to work through your own issues in the way you see fit.

Basically, leave her alone.
