[QUOTE="GuideMe, post: 633149, member: 18233"] Also keep in mind, some people do it for a "front" sort of speak. They want to appear like they have the normal and best family like everyone else. Especially now since facebook is around. That never occurred to me until one day I was having a conversation with one of my old friends. The conversation was about her sister and mother. Her sister detests her mother to the very core. Anyway, sister asked mother to go out to graduation dinner for sister's daughter. Well, it came to light that sister told her hubby and kids to ignore mother. Mother was heartbroken because she didn't realize what was going on. Anyway, I ask my friend why would her sister invite her mother to graduation dinner if she really didn't want her there to begin with? and my friend said this: "Because she is doing it for appearances. All of her other friends have great relationships with their parents and you know how she always wants to be like everyone else 'keeping up with the jones'. She posted pictures of mom and kids on Facebook the very next day" So sometimes there are superficial reasons like that. [/QUOTE]
