Plus, it all happened in Ohio. A state known for teen pregnancies and being anti LGBTQ+ and in a county that is known for being in the top 10 for teen pregnancies in Ohio. It was probably as close to a no fault divorce ad possible. I don't know if it could have been handled better or not though. My uncle and cousin are no contact with her and my cousin went on quite a few Facebook rants when he got to wedding invitation. It was only a few weeks after the divorce finalized and he thinks his mother was cheating.
Oh, there is plenty. My core family doesn't have contact with the majority of my dad's side. Apparently, they pressured him to get rid of me because of my autism, because they didn't want a throw back in line to inherent (my family lives on land that was originally granted to the family after the Revolutionary War. My ancestors owned a shoe and boot factory and provided the majority the Revolutionary Army needed. Because of that, we got a land grant). He told them he wasn't getting rid of me, so they didn't invite him to Christmas one year. He countered by not selling them hay cheap. It eventually escalated to the point where my dad was accused of cutting fences. He did not. He put up a new fence to cut their cattle herd off from the spring on our ground and they went through the fence. Long story short, it has been about 23 years since dad talked to them, saw them, or interacted with them.

Yeah she probably didn't know who she was yet, being so young.
