Our son's ex-wife's expectations at family functions
I'm a 75 yr-old grandfather from wisconsin. Our son's ex-wife insists on being invited to our family functions such as holiday dinners. It is very uncomfortable with her at the table with our son and his new wife. Is it reasonable for to expect to be included?
Thank you.

Hello there!
It seems that your son's ex-wife got along very well with your family, and perhaps is on good terms with everyone, including your son. Does she feel comfortable with your son and his wife present? I would assume she does, if she feels that she can sit through family functions perfectly fine. Do they have any kids together? That might also be another reason why she chooses to attend the family functions.
Either way, the person who seems most uncomfortable is you. Do you mind her being there, or are you uncomfortable with her being there because you think the sight of your son with his new wife hurts her? It's definitely time to speak with your son's ex-wife is that helps you feel any better. Good luck, and I hope I helped!
Sincerely,
