[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, another thread where people are entitled to feelings but not their behavior.

We teach this to our minor children...life isn't fair sometimes but that doesn't make it okay to blame, abuse, and be otherwise inconsiderate to other people.

Stepdaughter needs to intervene when her son is bullying, not permit her kids to tear up OP and DH's house, and she needs to pitch in because everyone is sick and that's what adults do.

And now knowing the dynamics, she needs to spend next Christmas ar her house, perhaps hosting her siblings, and accepting the sucky reality[b] that Dad/Granddad can’t join because he had to focus on Family #2.

At least she was game to try it once.  [/quote]

HE INVITED THEM TO HIS HOUSE FOR CHRISTMAS. Good grief.[/quote]

Correct. And it’s not working. So Kids Group #1, especially irritated SD, would be wise to make a different choice next year and not to have Dad/Granddad be a core part of the plans.[/quote]

Well, he wanted them to come, it's what he wanted.  And I'm sure he meant it in a nice way.  But I am skeptical that they wanted it as much as he did.  Sounds like traveling was more a gift from them to the DH.

DH should understand that he has made the choice to have a second family and spend less time with his grandchildren.  He has the right to do it, but it is not realistic to expect the adult children to be happy about it.  He could have married someone his own age instead.  It was his choice.

He could have been a 14 year old dad who got his first wife pregnant as a 13 year old 7th or 8th grader, but that is not likely.
