[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're putting too many emotional and financial resources into both weddings. [/quote]

Tbh I think that is where a lot of my emotions are coming from. I feel like I was pressured to "step up" financially by mom since she says my sister doesn't have anyone else and she/they "helped so much with my son." Simultaneously, I'm supposed to just be ok with her wanting to incorporate him (really #3 just doesn't sit well) no questions asked. FYI my sister is a really sweet person which makes it harder to share how I'm feeling about it. But I don't know this just feels weird - it's not like he's the man of the house he and I have lived without them for years and he's literally 12.

At this point I'd rather have a micro wedding. Weddings are freaking expensive[/quote]

This is your chance to model appropriate behavior, then. A wedding is not a series of photo ops that drain you financially. A nephew is not a father figure. A parent should shield their kids from unhinged relatives. [/quote]
