SO's ex (BM) doesn't speak to her parents. BM doesn't let her parents see their son (SS).
SO maintained a decent relationship with his ex's parents, though hasn't really intereacted much with them since him and I began dating.
In the last few months, because BM hasn't allowed her parents to see SS, they've reached out to SO to try and see their grandchild.
We went back and forth on it, but in the end, BM's parents came to our home for a visit with SS. Since that time, we've gone out for breakfast with them a few times.
SO doesn't have much family here, and we haven't figured out yet whether we're going to have our wedding here, or in his home town in Newfoundland. Either way, SS will be in attendance, and won't really know anyone who could be in charge/responsible for him, other than my own kids - and they're young teens, and will likely be in the wedding party, not wanting to waste the event babysitting SS. He's 4, and a bit of a handful at times.
Anyway, we were kind of discussing whether we should invite BM's parents. My first reaction is no, because they're his ex's parents. However, we're friendly with them. Yes, it's weird for me... but it's nothing I can't handle.
The thought behind it, is that if they're invited, they can then leave with SS once he's either too much of a pain in the butt, or after dinner. They won't know anyone else, anyway, really.
Would you have your partner's ex's parents at your wedding?
No...right?
