He and his wife always says something negative about them and to them. I finally said something to my brother about it. Then he goes on to critize me. My children are good kids. They have been through alot in their lifetime. I told my brother that we will not come around again until he can show some love and compassion towards them. Am I wrong to do this?

Does he have kids of its own? why is he saying bad things about your kids? what type of person is he? could he be jealous? maybe he wants what you have and he cant, and hes taking it out on the kids. Dont go to a place where your kids are going to be treated bad, either by looks or words, kids hear everything and sense everything, keep them away from all that negativity. The world is negative as it is, they dont need to find it close to home too. Give them the love they need and always reassure them of your love.

What you said is right and best for your kids. Like you know they need to grow up[ around positive. This makes a world of differnce. I in general get annoyed by little ones. So if they are bothering I leave or stay out of the way. But in no way Am I going to be that way to my brothers' children. When they get a little older I am sure we will have a good relationship and they will understand why I didn't say much to them.

You are 100% right. No adults ever have an excuse to say disrespectful things to a child. Your brother and his wife are way out of line on this. Protect your kids and your self-esteem. Be the good mother you are and love those kids. Tell your brother to get lost.

NO. YOU did the right thing. YOUR brother sounds like they r jealous. YOUR kids do not need that. DONT feel bad my mother+ sister did the same thing.When my dad died i wasnt even told of his death till 30 days later.SO some times family isnt family. SOME times friends are closer then a brother, I am sorry 4 you. BUT know it happends all over the USA.PROTECT YOUR KIDS. BE prepared they may not ever come around too.

No your not wrong! Beside kids aren't stupid they sense it.
My ex husbands sister used to refer to my eldest son as 'the brat', i can not even type what i said to her, i flipped, big time! She never recognises them at christmas or there birthdays, infact neither does there Father so no love lost there!
Surround your children with positivity.

Good Mums stick together, keep it up girl!

My 8 year historic comes up on a every day foundation and makes specific she gets her respected kiss and hug, (in spite of the actuality that she has gotten various already, she has to have the respected one on a every day foundation).

You are right, stick to your guns. You'd think he and his wife could, at the very least, be kind and polite. Shows you what kind of people they really are.
I once said to a person at a family function that never had anything good to say about everyone else's kids, "have you looked at your kids lately," Her kids were absolute beasts and we were all kind to her, and she never said a bad thing about the kids in front of me again.

first i wanna ask is there something wrong with your children? like mentally or physically disabled or are they adopted? most of the time that's why a family memeber usually neglects someone in their family. if your kids have none of the above maybe your kids done something to your brother that he is not telling you or maybe your brother is just miserable. if he doesn't have any kids, he might just be jealous.

No, your not wrong if he is indeed insulting your children. If he's simply not being a loving caring uncle, it's possible that he just doesn't like kids and that children make him uncomfortable. While I'm terrible with children and prefer to ignore them, I wouldn't insult them infront of them or infront of their parents.
