Oh that is so sad ! When i divorced many years ago.. i never envisaged his parents stopping seeing the 2 boys. But they did.... not a xmas card or birthday card for 23 years. Then at xmas i sent her some photos [ she had asked a friend of mine if i would do this for her]... i then got a xmas card.. full of ' what a good job you have done' [ how does she know] and.... could i possibly meet them..... Both boys [ well men now] have said NO... she has left it too late ... ...... one was 2 years old..... the other was new born when i divorced ! So sad.........

Oh Annie I really feel for you. I can't understand why some partners take it out on the granparents. Can you not go round and chat to her. Surely as a granparent, don't they have rights now? Not something I know much about really. Oh this little lad needs to know who you are.

I went into our local supermarket today and a woman that i used to work with years ago called me.She went on to tell me that she had my 6 year old grandson round in the week to play with her grandson.Went on to tell me what a lovely little boy he was and how he looked like my son.My son has not seen him since he was 2 and i stopped seeing him last year as she never told him who i was.I was just the very nice lady that bought him presents.I also felt that i was going behind my sons back.
