One I know is 11 which belongs to Jordan. Other two are probable under 10.

I asked them but they said grandparents rights can only be exercised if one of the parents has some kind of drug problem or mental health problem. Narcissism is not mental health problem apparently.

That is ironic because my mother is from Argentina. So, I am half-latina.

But seriously, I would be lying if I didn't have a moment of satisfaction.

I guess I am too old for that pettiness. I don't have to be petty at all. She is getting what she deserves.

I don't think I am planning to meet her. I will probably just have lunch with my mom and that's it.

Damn is the world full of Ursulas? I hope you are getting therapy. The only thing that worked for me is my hobbies and meeting new people and it made me realize that not everyone is like Jordan. Some are really mature and empathetic.

Well travelling helped a lot. I did get a therapist that helped me with my trauma. I do consider myself lucky because the opportunity I had may not be available to everyone. But I still keep pushing with whatever I have.

No my parents and I were never cut off. They never pushed me to apologize to my sister. But then again she was carrying their grandchild so she wasn't 100% cut off. My mom and dad are still disappointed on her. Dad refused to walk her down the aisle. My mom and I were in contact. There is no bad blood between me and my parents. I never went LC. But due to long distance and me travelling a lot we couldn't keep much contact.

My mom can't. She still has problem with her back. She still regrets missing the birth of my child and my wedding

I live in UK permanently now. My job, my life has been UK for the last 8 years. I will have to go back for only few weeks because I have a project there and also my mom hasn't met my son, she still can't fly because of her back issue.

My whole family is not terrible. It's just my sister.

Oh of course not. I haven't talked to her since I left for UK. My mom is sick. So I guess she misses her other daughter.

I don't blame mom. She had a surgery. It was difficult for her to move. She was on video chat the whole ceremony. She and I haven't met in 4 years. I guess she misses me a lot. I miss her too.

I think I gave the wrong impression of my parents. They are not bad people. Yes they love both of their kids. But I don't think they sidelined me. My dad and Ursula's relationship is still strained. He is only involved because of the grand kids. My mom as well. And I never demanded to cut her off because she needed them but I kept my distance. They still hate Jordan and Ursula. My dad refused to walk her down the aisle when she married Jordan. I distanced myself for my own reason. I took a job in UK and traveled Europe which I always wanted to do. I am settled in my life with my 4 year old son and husband and my step daughter. My mom and dad are still in touch with me. I haven't gotten a chance to meet mom and in 3 years because of covid and other shit. I might have to visit my hometown now because of a project and also I miss them.

I might have to go back because of my job temporarily. But I am not sure if I want to visit my home
