Question Category: Parenting & Discipline Is it unfair on my children to deny them from meeting their grandfather.
Anonymous asked 4 days ago

Mamalettes am I wrong for doing this? My step-mother was never kind to me and my brother. My father left my mother when I was 8 and my brother was 10. She was having mental issues before she later died. So we had to come live with him, not long after he married my step mother. This woman used to refer to us ugly bastards. She used to treat us like shit and even told us many times that we were worthless. When I was a teenager she told me that no man will ever want me and that men don’t like short women. She would slam doors in our face, punish us unnecessarily and tell us shut up, nobody wants to hear you speak. My dad never defended us and showed more love to her children and I still resent him to this day for it. I felt like a second class citizen in what should have been our own home. Luckily for me, I found a man who loved me and married me and now we have 3 children. My father and my step mum till today have not laid eyes on my children. So last week my father called and said he would like to see his grandchildren. Since I left for university I have not visited them except when my husband came to inform my dad he wanted to marry me. Till today my dad refuses to believe there is a problem with my step mom or how she treated us. Because of this I want nothing to do with my Dad or her, I have removed them from my life. I resent my Father for being weak, he couldnt stand up to his own wife for the sake of his kids from a previous marriage. I rarely see him and can care less about him, which is why I am surprised he suddenly wants to see us again. I have stopped picking his calls as i am not interested in seeing him, but i am wondering if it is unfair on my children to deny them from meeting their grandfather.
