[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I send birthday and Christmas gifts. My kids get nothing. [/quote]

I had a sibling cut me off several years ago.  I sent my nieces birthday and Christmas presents for several years and never knew if they even received them or were allowed to open them.  My kids received nothing from my sibling - not even a card.   I wish my sibling +spouse could keep the kids out of their issue with me but they didn't.  I saw this sibling and nieces a few years ago at a family celebration and my nieces didn't even know who I was or who my kids were.   Sadly, this year I decided my sibling and family is dead.  I no longer mention their names to my kids as at this point they will never have a relationship with their cousins until they are older and can decide for themselves.  But they will be strangers to each other so I highly doubt that will even happen.  When my parents bring the sibling up in conversation I tell them I am not interested in hearing about them.[/quote]
