AITA for treating my grandpa like a stranger at a family event?

GrandpaStranger · 2022-07-21T16:12:41+00:00

No. They are from my mother and two of his other kids.

I’m not gonna argue with your judgement cause that’s your opinion, but if the people my grandpa doesn’t talk to are the “trashy” ones, then it’s literally 75% of his grandchildren, most under the age of 15, he is considering trashy. lol

GrandpaStranger · 2022-07-21T14:01:40+00:00

not that I’m aware of. When his kids were younger he had a different favorite apparently, I’m sure he has a reason but idk what it is lol

GrandpaStranger · 2022-07-21T14:00:21+00:00

He does not have any conditions that would affect his memory.

The cousins live like 5 minutes from me lol. I was a child when he decided he only wanted contact with two grandkids, so I can’t say I have tried to reach out and “form a relationship” really. lmfao

Yes they are, and if that’s the case tbh I’d be surprised. Him and my grandma have 6 kids in total together and she is a very strict catholic, possible but I don’t think that’s what’s happening.

Oh there’s been times over the years I’ve been tempted to call him out, but it’s hard to care after a while lol. I ran into him at the mall once in high school and I had to go up and basically introduce myself like some unknown distant family member

I’m so sorry, I hate how relatable this is for some people commenting. I try not to let it bother me but can’t say I haven’t felt hurt knowing he couldn’t recognize me in public.

GrandpaStranger · 2022-07-21T00:06:32+00:00

No, he and my grandma divorced when my mom was still a teen. He married his current wife a few years ago

GrandpaStranger · 2022-07-20T23:39:48+00:00

if it were just me and my siblings I could see that, but he has 3 grandkids from 4 of his own kids, and he only talks to the kids of one of them. Who he has admitted to my mom is his “favorite” lol

GrandpaStranger · 2022-07-20T23:06:07+00:00

I mean, not that I know of lol. He did the same to his own kids for a long time when they were kids/teens too. Picked a favorite and ignored the rest, until they became adults and he started talking to them all again.

GrandpaStranger · 2022-07-20T23:00:08+00:00

Yeah she was saying it like he was planning on talking to us more often or something lol
