Thanks The birthday party went really well. He didn't ask why they wheren't there and they didn't show up either. And yes, I have to tell him bit by bit so they can't turn him against me at a older age

I've been NC with my mother and LC with my father for 8 months now. I haven't really told my son about it.  But soon he's turning 7 and he expects his grandparents to come and celebrate him......We're planning a big party with lots of his friends and his grandparents on his fathers side. How do I tell him that his maternal grandparents are not invited?  Any suggestion ?

Yeah, this happened a lot when I was a kid. But it wasn't kinda scary. Was more a way to move the scary things and scary faces away.... Like a game: "You're angry at me? Then I'll move you far away so your're not that scary anymore"...... I thought everybody could do this Think I did it almost every night lying in my bed.

WoW! Thanks for sharing! This post gave me a big Aha moment. The same thing happened to me a few days ago. I had said yes to spend some time with the family I'm born into. The following days I was dissociating a LOT and when the day came, I was really out of shape. So I had a reason to say I couldn't come. And boom, immediately   I was myself again
