[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with above poster. If Aunt Becky wants to meet them, this could be a great move towards education/reconciliation/acceptance. [/quote]

Then Aunt Becky can apologize to OP. It’s not her kids’ job to educate the old racist. [/quote]

Well said PP! +100[/quote]

This isn't a friend she can just demand an apology from or else de-friend.  It's a relative, forever.  Sometimes it's better to be happy than to be right.  [/quote]

This is a distant relative that they've lived perfectly happily without for years. Of course she can be defriended. There's no law saying you have to socialize with people just because you happen to share some DNA. I would drop my own parents or siblings without any qualms or regrets if they were racists, and it would be their loss. Some random member of my spouse's extended family would be an easy cut. What does this woman bring to the table? She appears to have had exactly zero positive contributions to OP's family's life.[/quote]
