[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think it’s fair to expect separate holidays on Christmas Day and thanksgiving itself. But it should be fine to have dinners together on non holidays without the steps, trips without the steps of you visit them from out of town etc [/quote]

This. Everyone can suck it up for holidays and large family events.[/quote]

That is so mean. You want your FIL to choose between seeing his kids or his wife on Christmas, but your DW doesn’t need to choose. She gets to see sibs and mom. And you think that’s right? Sounds like the steps aren’t the problem, it’s your entitled and cruel wife. [/quote]

Children of divorce have to choose between their parents on holidays.  Wah.[/quote]

Not if the parents can come together and spend the holiday together. This isn't something that needs to happen. It's happening because the wife is a jerk. Her needs supersede everyone else's needs. She needs to get over herself and be an adult. Wah.[/quote]

So for the holidays, current marriages are suspended and everyone hangs out with their ex?  Come on. If two people are divorced with kids and then they marry each other and have a kid, how can they come together with their exes without making the new kid choose between them?  Nobody's willing to live like that.  Divorced people should stop being in denial of the burdens they impose on their children.[/quote]
