I let go of him a long time ago. I even married way before him. It's his family who can't seem to let ME go.

Not your business.

Make sure you don’t secretly enjoy it.

Say nothing.

I don't understand why I am in it in the first place. Why do these people keep bringing me up?

They have two sets of grandkids who deserve to be loved.


Of course. But their dad and mom split up and the grandparents can see the way the kids look at their dad and his new family. It isn’t really that hard to understand, is it? It has nothing to do with OP and everything to do with her children.


+1000 they are not hurting thebaby’s feelings with lack of gifts, baby doesn’t care. When the baby is older hopefully they will treat him well. Right now for the grandparents maybe it is between grandkids and new DIL,and they want the grandkids to feel precious

NP. They have let you go. They didn't like you either, they weren't warm to you. They are only talking about you to get at the new wife.

It's not about you, they aren't interested in you they are just using your name to get to the new wife.

Yes, this.

So...they are probably asking/talking about you a lot so the kids dont feel abandoned/threatened by the arrival of new baby. They may worry about the fragility of their feelings right now, so discuss you frequently etc. Also, just becuase your children did not see any baby gifts given by other family members does not mean they were not given.
