I know a guy, who I no longer consider a friend, who ostracized his daughter causing her two sisters and mom to ostracize her also. She married a guy with different religious views than him. Supposedly followed “biblical guidelines”. He has a grandchild or two that have pretty much not known their extended family. I think that the guy would send Christmas presents. SMH. Family is family no matter what good or bad. It ain’t always easy and sometimes it’s near impossible but disowning a child is a bridge too far for me.
