Still trying to figure out why when my Dad remarried, he decided that the family he had with my Mom (as in my 3brothers, their families and me) ceased to exist. This was brought on after a conversation I had yesterday with my stepmother. I called to see what the family plans were for Thanksgiving this year - she and Dad are going out of town to spend the holiday with some of her family. Later in the day I spoke with my Dad about coming over and getting some photos (my counselor wants to see some photos from my childhood). At first he was "Sure come on over" only to call me back later to tell me that he needed several days to get all the photos together. When he started dating my stepmother, Dad put away just about everything having to do with us . There is not a single photo anywhere on display in his house of my side of the family; not even his 9 grandkids. Plenty of my stepmother's but none of Dad's.
