I really need some unbiased advise about family crap.
So, my dad's sister called and bitched out my mother because she lost some really old pictures of some of our ancestors. She apparently told her that when dad died they should have been returned to the family. Mom asked what the hell I was. She said I was just a niece of these people and why would I want them? She hasn't has anything to do with us since 2000 and my sister died. IT burned her ass when my mom told her her pedophile brother was not allowed to attend the funeral. He had tried to molest my sister when she was like 13 or 14. She hated him. Why would she have ever wanted him at her funeral. Not to mention the fact that my cousin whom he raped repeatedly when she was a child ruining her entire life was going to be there. She didn't need that the day her cousin who was more like a sister died. So, we haven't heard from these people since. Well, at least not until today when my mom called for my uncle who is visiting from California. She didn't have his cell number, so she called my aunt's house, where he's staying.
So, my question is, should I call and unload and blow up this bridge without prejudice or should I just leave it alone?

1. Leave it alone
It might feel good to do it but it won't do any good.

2. Duckie, i had a blow up with the side of the family i don't talk to, i hadn't heard from them
in years after a huge, no massive faling out when my mother died. They call me up and try and get me to give them a spot in the family plot for my awful Uncle, i told them no and some other choice words and that was the end of it. I have no plans to ever contact any of them again, yes it was that bad but to this day i'm not sorry i said what i did, i owe them nothing and they can all go fuck themselves or not, i just don't care.

Ok so that's not exactly objective advice but thats what happened.

4. Family arguments are the worst
Given this, I hope your mom told her to go to Hell.

possession is nine-tenths of family law, baby!
