[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My SIL took the attitude that it was not her job to maintain a relationship with her husband's family. This came across in so many ways. Little notes when her kids (my nieces/nephews) to her relatives but not to us ("Come to my birthday party, Uncle Wally!"). Cultivating relationships on her kids' behalf with her family, but not with ours. Invites to recitals, shows, etc. Now we have no relationship with those kids. [/quote] Maybe you should blame your brother instead. Why wasn't he doing this for your family??? [/quote] Why are you blaming your SIL when your brother is actually the one who needs to bear the most blame/responsibility here? Hello? Have you ever PICKED UP THE PHONE and talked to your brother about this? It's as much your fault, actually, by not speaking up to him and saying you want more of a relationship with your nieces and nephews.[/quote] Please read my post at 12:14.[/quote]
