[quote=Anonymous]OP, it [i]is[/i] sad to have to exclude a set of relatives from your children’s lives. But that’s a choice they made through their related actions. Including them now won’t heal the rift or fix their crazy. It won’t be a gift to your children either. You and your husband made a sound choice about the relationship you wanted with extended family. You received good counseling about it too. A special occasion doesn’t change that relationship. What it does do is cause you to feel grief, which is natural. At this milestone you notice the loss of family whom you’d like to have in your life. Instead of trying to turn them into something they’re not, process your grief. It’s not an easy or short process, but it is easier than relationship with toxic people.[/quote]
