Yes. Return those items back. ASAP Especially the gold teeth of your deceased FIL. ICK

Also, stop entertaining your ex's convo's on the cost of fertility treatments & medical bills.

You don't owe him anything but it would be decent to give those things back.


+1. You’d really rather be the kind of person who does the right thing when you have custody of someone’s sentimental things as compared to the kind of person who wouldn’t. Even if he’s a complete douchebag, you’re not really doing it for him personally, you’re acting in accordance with general standards of decency. And truthfully, getting these things out of your life quickly and uncontroversially is a way of decluttering anyway.

Yes you should.

Do people keep gold teeth from people have passed? I've never heard this.


Honest funeral homes will return gold fillings, jewelry etc when someone is creamated


Pulling out teeth before someones cremated sounds strange to me.

And don't let yourself be bamboozled into modifying the settlement, if that's what he's after.

Send them back. Why is he suddenly whining to you? If you don’t have kids or any ties together I’d block him.
