[quote=Anonymous]I'm a SIL and an Aunt.  I'm lucky if I speak to my brother once a year - if that.  I go back to my hometown maybe once every 4 years - so my mom doesn't always have to fly here to see her grandson.  I'm just not that close with my brother and I don't think I've spoken to my SIL in 4 years.  BUT, I get texted pictures of his kids - sometimes from him, sometimes, from SIL, sometimes from Grandma - but always in a group text.  Every once in a while I'll respond.  Most of the time I don't.  I send pictures of DS too with info on what he's doing.

Do I expect a response - hell no.  I'm just passing along the info so people can stay updated or not.  Keeps grandma happy.  My dad (divorced from mom since i was young) and I haven't spoken in 5 years (anther story), but he's still on the group text so he sees what DS is doing.  He's never responded and I would never think of taking him off.  Get over yourself.  Trust me - she's no going to use the info for anything other than keeping up a conversation with the other family members.  Jeesh![/quote]
