[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 256705, member: 1550"] I did write a nice letter. Thanks for the advice. Actually, he doesn't really care what my kids are doing (believe it or not--he can't even remember the name of his great-grandson who was born 84 years after him--and one day). He really usually just wants to talk about himself and (believe it or not) his current girlfriend. I did ask about her and if he's gone to any dances, which he loves to do. He was in the war, but he would never talk about it. Ever. He was actually in WWII--he's one of the last ones left. And I do love him a lot. Sister has had tons of chances and something in her--she's just different. She gets offended easily and takes things wrong. Brother is a nice guy way off in NJ and it's hard to reach him. I've tried. We aren't really close. I am praying a lot in my own way. But I am also trying to distance myself--detach. I know that there is no way to control anyone in my family--they are all control freaks. It's a miracle that I am a halfway good mother...lol! I'm nothing like they are with my kids. I don't understand how they can't love their kids unconditionally--it's just something that parents do. Oh, well. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
