[quote=Anonymous]So, you had a controlling mother and your brothers have recreated that dynamic in their own marriages. Don't expect them to change. If you really want to maintain a relationship with them, then take them on their own terms. I think you erred in turning away your brother's offer to visit with his oldest. Very counterproductive to your goals. Call him back and tell him you'd love for them to come enjoy hunting or whatever on your property this winter. Do not think about who is right or wrong. That's the wrong the lens for viewing your relationship, and there is nothing to be gained by it. Take whatever opportunity you get to nurture the bonds between you and your brother and between your children and his. Then hope for the best over time.[/quote]
