To both of you who have taken the big step to go NC with your families, can you tell me how you did it? Did you tell them face to face, write something to them or just let things drift until it became obvious?

I am still determined to do it, but ramifications are beginning to come into my awareness e.g. what do I do with all those photos of my kids? Part of me would like to keep the ones of when they were young as we had good times then, were very close and have some special memories, but let go the adult ones. But I suppose that is not really "letting go" to the extent of "I never had this family". What do you think?
