I told them I have no responsibility to help them and no desire to have their kids in my home for 2+ weeks depending on how long it takes them to go for the funeral and make it back. They are pissed with me saying ex's family all said no too and they have nobody who will watch the kids and she doesn't deserve to go through this alone. I do not want to look after their children, I am not helping them out. They want to travel for the funeral and asked me to keep their kids because it would apparently be more complicated quarantining and stuff with children. She grew up in another country and her family is there. The boys have a rocky relationship with them because they tried to force them to call her mom.Īnyway, they now have two other kids and her mom died. We don't communicate all that much which is how I like it. Apparently I was supposed to be unaffected by what my ex and his ow did. They never got over my refusal and the fact that when my ex had to leave for a month working after that I wouldn't let her see the boys in that time, or the fact I didn't "show concern" for the two of them. Now take into account that she was in their lives 5ish months at that point and was already claiming them as hers. She told me she needed "her boys" around. Things were already tense between us but then they wanted to keep the boys for an indefinite period of time so she could grieve with them around. Left me for the OW who got pregnant and that baby ended up being stillborn.

Some bg: ex cheated on me when our sons were 6 and 4, now 12 and 10.
