[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother, sister, niece and nephew were scheduled to come and spend the night on Thursday with us. The kids are my kids only cousins and we never see them because my sister never makes them available. My mother also lives 1 mile from my sister and is totally enmeshed in their lives (picks the kids up from school regularly, babysits them, does all sorts of activities with them, etc..they see each other daily). Also my mother owns the house my sister lives in (just some background info).

My mother calls last night (Wednesday) and said she’s sorry but they won’t be making it because my sister thinks it’s too much for her kids to deal with having their cousins and sharing the attention of my mother. Her kids at 10 and 8, I have teens. My mother said it wouldn’t work for them after all and to have a Happy Thanksgiving. I asked my mother if she would come then by herself and she said no, she couldn’t leave my sister alone on Thanksgiving.

I hung up and cried. [/quote]

This is awful! What is the background here? Why would they ditch you right before the holiday? (Not that there is a good reason for this). Wishing you a peaceful holiday PP, for you and your teens. [/quote]

This is so awful! I hope this is the information you need to disengage from your mother and sister, and make your own plans to be happy and loved[/quote]
