[quote=Anonymous]All the grandparents I know are very similar to yours. Sadly, but in my experience it is true. Your younger DS didn't do anything wrong, cutting off grandparents would punish him, not just them. And to be pragmatic, is your DH in line to inherit quite a bit of money in the future? So, make sure your older understands they suck in how they treat him. It isn't fair, and you don't allow it in your presence and you don't expose him to them, but don't punish the younger one. I do the same with my kids. FIL is a chauvinist pig and just about hates all his granddaughters, including my teen DD. I limit contact to a minimum, heck less than a minimum. I make sure she know what he is doing is not fair, not nice and just mean and rude, and she does, she is 16. He even asked me the other day why she never calls him?! That is a tactic to blame her for his unacceptable behavior. I plain told him she know you don't care one fig about her, so why should she? Other granddaughters also avoid him. Grandsons are now realizing what a nasty bigot grandpa is. It all levels out somehow. Sadly my mom is the same, grandson, grandson. She does compensate to my DD by buying her million things, though. My dad is the only one who adores my DD and sadly he has severe dementia now, but he still calls her his princess. So, limit as much as possible, but find a way not to punish your younger son. What I am trying to say in my long not so summed up post, is that this is sadly how I've seen in in most families.[/quote]
