[quote=Anonymous]Long story short:  DH and I are divorcing after 15 years of marriage.  Our last 5 years were pretty tumultuous, with DH finally admitting to his infidelities.  I finally filed for divorce, he moved out.  Our parents are alive and well and obviously know about the upcoming divorce.

My mother was never too keen on DH or his family.  She was always polite but I know neither she or my Dad liked him very much.  My parents and ILs communicated maybe 2-3 times a year by phone and would occasionally meet at our DCs' birthdays.  So imagine my shock when I find out that in addition to hosting me and my kids this Thanksgiving, she invited soon to be ex-DH and his parents.

Now I don't consider DH to be my family any more and I certainly don't consider ILs who always took their precious son's side no matter what.  My parents are not friends with his parents.  I can't get a straight answer from her why she invited them.  I am certainly not reconciling with him so what does she hope will happen?  Our DCs are surprised as well, "why is Dad coming?"
