my son is 37. he is married with 4 children . His wife seems to have many problems as she has stopped me seeing the kids so many times for seemingly no reason. my daughters have nothing to do with him because of the chaos and disruption they bring every where they go and the effect on their own children. my sons oldest boy is very troubled and has been in trouble with the law and locked up. my son and his wife take no responsibility for any of this. my son works for a government family agency which amazes me considering his own disjointed family. i have been supportive of his family and been a friend to his wife but for some unknown reason she always causes trouble and shuns me. my husband and i cannot understand it. my mother takes his side as she sees him as the golden haired favoroured boy. she has always been hard on me and prior to my birth lost a baby boy in a violent death.
i realise this is a somewhat complicated situation but i need to let it out. vent so to speak. i feel so rejected by the way they treat me. its hard to forget about your son or give up on your grandchildren. i have tried to help the oldest one but he used us up and stole from us and really hurt my hus band. i rang my son last night and he basically said he is too busy for family (except for my mum who he is hoping to inherit from). i do feel sorry for him tho as he is week and his wife has probably given him an ultimatim, me or her. she is the poisonous type of person who would go to ANY length to get her own way.
