When I got divorced my parents tried to get me not to go through with it. My ex Sarah is the daughter of their best friends. We had two kids that my parents adore. My parents tried everything to make me stay in that marriage. Sarah fought me on everything. I finally managed to escape and got what I consider to be a fair deal. No spousal support or child support. She kept the house and we split our other assets My parents said I was evil. They actually called me evil for walking away from a cheater and two kids that weren’t biologically mine.

I moved cities for my mental health. I started over. It sucked that I did this without support from my family. My parents pretty much poisoned my extended family against me. I have a job that I can do from anywhere so I didn’t even have to switch employers.

My parents insisted on sending me pictures of the kids so eventually I completely cut them off. I wasn’t interested. I am still not interested now. Obviously they chose to stay in their lives so I needed them out of mine. It took months of blocking every attempt for them to catch a clue.

I remarried two years after my divorce. My wife and I just had our first child. I don’t know how but my parents found out. They contacted me through a new phone number. They said that they wanted to meet their grandson. I said they already had two grandchildren and to leave my son out of their lives. They said they deserved to be in his life. I said no and that if I had to get a lawyer involved I would.

I have no idea what is going on with Sarah and the kids. I don’t care. I do know that for at least six months after the divorce they were still heavily involved with her and the kids.

My wife has my back and her family understands my past. I never liked to them about why I am out of contact with my family and my ex.

Am I wrong for keeping them away from their first biological grandchild after they chose nonbiological one over me?
