I think it is so sad to have to resolve yourself to the fact that your 'children' don't get on.
We have the Christening looming of my youngest grandchild and to be honest, Grandad and I are not really looking forward to it, because our other son and his family won't be there to celebrate.
Up until now the rest of the family have been unaware of the rift, we were hoping that things would have blown over by now. The boys will just have to explain themselves, I will not be making excuses for them. I have completely stepped back from the situation, apart from just asking one last time if my son could be invited, and was answered with a very firm 'no'.
At least now my youngest son seems to have accepted that I am not taking sides and our relationship is improving. I have had my little Granddaughter visit for a few hours, on the understanding that I didn't take her to visit her Uncle and new little cousin, (she hasn't been told he has arrived, and I am not to tell her!).
