My family (their grandparents and cousins and all that) are very toxic people. I have chosen not to attend all (if any) family functions. I don't let them see my kids that often as they cause so much chaos in my life personally. However, they are family, and so I let my kids know them (mostly supervisered). As a parent this is the most I am comfortable with. Will my kids grow up to resent me that we didnt' do Christimas and let them be all chummy and close? My family wants to be SO close to my kids, and I am afriad that when my kids are older, they will tell my kids that it is all mommies fault, as they wanted to be extra special close grandma and all that. Will my kids see the dyfunction? Will they see that I did let them know their family, because I put their needs ahead of mine in that area:?
