My stepson and his wife are no longer talking to us and feel that we chose my grandson over their children.
We sent a birthday card to their son and they returned it to us and told us we were trying to buy his affection. I’m appalled that they feel we have to choose one side or the other. My grandsons deserve an apology. I am really not sure what to do. -- Family DramaGive this one time. What your stepson’s wife said to your grandsons was cruel, and your husband was right to stick up for them. Whenever you have a guest in your house, it is incredibly rude and hurtful to make them feel unwelcome.
I stayed married to a man for 23 years. He worked for pay for five years out of those 23. He was “self-employed” most of that time and was incapable of following through on anything. I worked full time, took on all his “self-employment company debt,” paid off his student loans that were in default and paid our mortgage, which grew to consolidate the debts he was incurring so that I could keep us afloat. He told me if I was a better wife, then he would be a better husband.
