Just want your opinion on this

[Tuesday13]

I dont have contact with my famiily much.

I only talk to my mum on the phone and i only call her, she never calls me. I live 90 miles away from them and they have only seen my DS 2 times since he was born.

I do not have contact with my 2 sisters and my brother or their partners.

This year they have sent a xmas card and a birthday present to my DS (15 months) so i sent ones back to their children.

I do not want to have contact with my family.

They are all toxic and i dont want my child around them (the last time i took my DS my sister started shouting at me, she was red in the face and swearing in front of my terrified 12 month old)

I dont want to send their children xmas and birthday cards and money. My oldest sister said i would be mean to take it out on the kids but then she said your children live the life you live (and they are both not talking to me).

Should i send cards or just write a letter and tell them i'm not going to? Would i make matters worst?

Both my sisters were very mean to me and have no cause to be.

WWYD?

Send cards to the kids, it's not their faults their parents are mean to you.

Just don't have any contact with your sisters.

Why not just do birthday cards and leave it at that for now.

I didn't get on well with my two younger sisters but over the last 10 years, everyone has mellowed a bit - including me I expect - and now we manage to get on ok. Gives us another 10 years and we might end up as good friends.

`send a card.
a small present if the children are old enough to appreciate it.

no letters to the parents or anything else.

rise above the pettyness of it all

Think I wouldn't bother at all.

You have no idea of what your sisters have been saying to their children and if you did send cards containing money are they recieving them?

I'd just quietly them be and get on with my own life.
