When I first got custody of my two sons we started doing movie nights every friday, payday of course. It was just us guys, things were tight financially but they were getting better every week. On movie night we would drag a mattress in the living room, order a pizza, make popcorn, wrestle and just have a great time. Now they are grown and though I still have a great relationship with both of them those movie nights are some of my favorite memories. Thankfully I now have a 6yo granddaughter I get to spend alot of time with so the good times arent gone

My son's biological family (father's side) has also had nothing to do with my son. When his father died almost 5 years ago they have not once contacted him. They just live in the next town. My son and I were out one day, my son just ahead of me when his uncle was coming toward us he didn't even say hi to his nephew. I got really mad and called him a Jack*** he got upset so I told him about not contacting his nephew he tried to say that he didn't know how to. I told him that his brother had my contact info and we (me and my son) have lived in the building for almost 30 years. To this day they have still not contacted him. My sisters who live far away still contact us. So my son doesn't even ask about them.

I'd give my eyesight for just one loving family member that actually cared about me.

The MAILMAN has a better relationship with your child than your parents?!?!?!
@bluelotus3750
$5800 for a birthday party for a 10 year old? And it takes 6 years... SIX... to take a stand for you and your daughter? Yeah, big NO. It should not have taking so long to stand up to them.

Im turning 44 and there is still family and friends of my parents that doesn't know I exist. They only know of my sister and brother. My grandfather stayed with us and I always had to stay home bcos he wasn't well. I didnt mind until I did. My parents are always bragging about my brother and sister. They have the perfect family and 2 kids. Me, unmarried and no kids.Always praising them. Got the cars and the best Education. I didnt get anthing. Paid for my own cars, studied for my own degrees. Got Senior position in our gov and had to bail out our parents when my dad lost everything in 2014. Recently I told them I did it on my own. Its my achievements not theirs. Nobody gets to tell it. The weird part is in my work i make a change in so many people's lives yet my own family doesn't even know.

My sister has put no effort into having a relationship with my 16 yr old autistic son. She however has put in every effort to have a relationship with my older daughters. My son has always been different than other boys his age, and I believe she didn't find it easy to be the fun aunt with him. He's 16, hasn't spoken to her in 8 years and doesn't remember her after I stopped bending over backwards to keep her in his life. Heck I think I've only spoken to her a handful of times in those 8 years. Now all of a sudden she's upset when I go down to visit my mother that I didn't come by to visit the family. The same family who has abandoned my son, the son who doesn't remember them. Some families aren't worth making an effort for. I have my chosen family, friends who are aunts and uncles to my son, who make the effort to speak to my son and be involved in his life.
