Estranged family members

[geo]

1. possibly, but only if it was a request from my parents. if i really hated them then i probably wouldn't.
2. same again, only if my parents really wanted me to unless i hated them.

1) would you invite them to your wedding? no
2) would you go to their funeral? yes if my other close family did

depends how distant they were from us now or w/e. luckily don't have any like that

I don't have any estranged family members, if there was anyone who'd get cut off it'd probably end up being me lol

1) would you invite them to your wedding? Yes
2) would you go to their funeral? Yes

[Elegance]

yes to both. no matter how much damage they have done, they are still family

1) would you invite them to your wedding?
For my mum's parents no, they never made any effort to get to know my mum's kids and never offered help to my mum so I wouldn't make the effort to invite them to my wedding when they wouldn't even come. They'd see it and probably think "who on Earth is this girl??" I've never even met them and I know my mum wouldn't mind.

For my Auntie who kinda cut herself off, I would. Because although we haven't talked in years and she was basically like "no one talk to me" we were once really close and I know she still lives where she always has so I would invite her. If she comes then that's great if not I wouldn't mind. We still send her invitations to family things even though she never turns up. I also get the impression that this "no one talk to me" thing is something she has done before, so by the time I'm engaged she might be speaking to us again.

2) would you go to their funeral?
For my mum parents no, I don't even know if my mum would although she would get told it was on by her siblings.

For my Auntie yes I would.
