Got into it with MIL over seeing my kids. She hasn’t asked to see them since.
MIL randomly texted me this: “Good morning,
We are wondering why we haven't seen or heard from you in quite a while...are you keeping our grandchildren from us for some reason?
We are in the dark but it breaks our hearts or is that your intention?
Not sure you'll even read this but we love you and miss you
Mom and dad”
I responded with: “It's unfortunate you believe we would intentionally keep our kids from you. Visits and conversations have always been accessible to those who wish to be active in our family's lives. “
MIL: Really? Neither one of you answer the phone or texts
We funded christmas, in fact you guys didn't even come over until 8:30 at night, but you had no problem accepting gifts...
Why don't you tell me the real issues?
We got into it, I tried to be respectful as possible but she kept pushing me, and I ended up calling her an ahole. I have never been texted by MIL or FIL to see our 1 yr old and 2 yr old. I didn’t even want to show up on Christmas, but they guilted us into coming over, hence why we showed up late. I didn’t expect gifts or ask for any for my kids.
It’s been almost 2 months without hearing from them.
Obviously they never cared about seeing my kids, right?
