I would like to ask what the relationship was like with each of these extended family members. if it was good then by all means send the cards.

I always felt that the mom was judging me and I came up short, but it wasn't horrible or hateful or anything, just a feeling that I didn't measure up. We had pleasant times together. If it was just the brothers and sisters, I would send them cards. But I know if I send them cards and don't send the parents one, it will get back to the parents and they will be offended. So, I'm still waffling. I also think that if I don't send a card this holiday season, I never will. If I send one this year, that opens the way for future keeping in touch. Thanks for the input.
