[quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read the whole thread but I will say it sucks for the kid(s) in the second family. DH is an only in his dad’s second family. His siblings are roughly the same age as his mom and he is the same age as his nieces/nephews. He went to the same high school with them and grew up being teased about being an uncle to classmates. He took care of his dad when no one else showed up (with good reason) and he will inherit everything (per my mother in law, who says the first family was taken care of by the alimony he used to pay their mother 🙄). It’s uncomfortable. The great grandkids are the same ages as the grandkids but no one in the family likes us so it’s not like our kids have aunt/uncle or cousin relationships. When FIL was alive it was hard to watch him gush over our kids knowing he ignored his first set of grandkids because he was busy on his second round of parenting.[/quote]
