Among Friends

Sounds uncomfortable, it would be for me.

I can't make any opinions bc it's not my life. If you share children then it's understandable. Make the best of it and perhaps rethink next year???

My mother would never allow such an uncomfortable situation - my feelings would come first.

All I can say is if "Santa" shows up, I wouldn't.

To each his own though, whatever makes you happy.

That's true, to each their own.  So complicated with ex's and the family relationships, all seem to be quite different.

Personally, I would never had my ex come over for a meal.  You must be very strong.

Do what you're comfortable with.

@Luvsmyfam.  Hope you hadn't planned on sitting on Santa's lap.

You'll be okay, just go and do your own thing.

Hm, I'm wondering if your mother is working behind the scenes to push the two of you together. Something sneaky going on, to not ask you in advance, if you would approve of this Santa at the 'family' holiday. Maybe your mom is wishing things didn't turn out the way they did, too, as much as the ex may be.

@Luvsmyfam   from your past posts,   your daughter lives in the same house with your ex right?   he supports her?

@katie1859 The OP has talked often about her daughter and grandson.

I don't know all the in's and out's of your story but I don't understand why a mother would invite an ex to be Santa knowing what happened in your marriage and how it affected your life. If it's not comfortable for you...you need to tell your mother that or just stay away if you really want it to be totally over.

@QVCkitty1 If you read this current and past posts she seems to get along fine with him and has no problem with his being there.

I personally couldn't do it but it's not my choice to make.

@Love my grandkids , Well I believe she said she wasn't sure how she felt about it, so it just seemed odd to me. 🤷‍♀️
