[quote=Anonymous]Nope - OP should not invite her brother and his family. She can let him know that of course he is welcome but she can’t host his new family at this time, she understands he will need to spend it with his wife and her/their (can’t tell if they are step or young kids) kids. Here’s why …the drama between the dumped original kids and the do over kids is always a mess. DH’s father and his siblings all had divorces and second families. There is one expansive set of original cousins and one expansive set of do over cousins. As an observer its pretty clear that the originals are still hurt years later getting dumped by one parent and then seeing them dote on the do over kids. Step kids are even weirder. The original kids are seeing their dad’s time and resources go to some other women’s kids. Holidays are stressful enough don’t invite the clown car over and not expect a circus. [/quote]
