So I come from a broken family. actually it's more like it was broken and then the little pieces got hammers just to break it even more if ya catch my drift.
Every family has drama and the outsiders. Well the situation with us is that I'm the eldest Grandchild and pretty much seen as the youngest child cause my Mom's the oldest and so on.
My Uncle (My Mom's bro) had a big falling out with my Mom originally back when I was like 4 or 5. His wife went CRAZY about their wedding and refused me to be there. That would have been fine if she had just turned and said "no kids". But she invited all the kids from her side of the family and told my Mom to her face that I wasn't allowed to be there because I was an "out of control little brat". I may have beena lot of things but NEVER a brat, no way my family would let me get away with that!
So over the years there have been issues. My Uncle vs the rest of my family is what it has come to. My Grandfather says that if he's not invited o the wedding he's not coming. I have no problem inviting my uncle and his wife. However they have 3 kids that I barely know and when I did I couldn't stand them. As it is we're on a tight guest list. My family says that I can invite the 2 of them but none of their kids. I think this is good to. But I know that poops gonna hit the fan as soon as they send back their reply with the 5 of them.
It may sound silly that I'm sticking to my guns about not inviting them but OH WELL!!! I'm just wondering what I'm suppose to do here. I think my Grandfather should communicate with them about this cause it was his idea and really aside from me, he's the only one who will talk to my uncle. Oh man why can't I have an easy guest list?
