Here's the deal
My boyfriends parents are divorced and both remarried. He is also divorced and his ex is remarried. On Halloween, we go to his ex's house, the kids trick or treat while we pass out candy in their garage and drink a few beers. On Thanksgiving we all (now this includes his mom, his stepdad, his dad, his stepmom, sometimes even his ex and her husband and all the kids) go to someones house for the day. We even draw names for Christmas and all get together then as well. It might seem wierd but everyone gets along. As a matter of fact, I even like his ex and her husband
So what do you guys think?

Sometimes I think extended, extended families are good in a group. Not always but in certain cases its better than it ever could have been when they were still married.
I personally like my ex's parents and grandparents, they were normal. :p

Great job!!!!!!!!!! :p

Extended families are ok and it generally works out better for the kids. As long as it civil it works for me.

My parents are this way. and it looks like my Ex and I are the same way. funny thing is, my ex and I are better friends now than when we were married (less fighting). I think it truly is better for the kids that are wrapped up in the divorce to see it this way.
It is a rarity to see things this way....but I wouldnt say it is weird.

I think you need to get married then divorced.

nothing wrong with that at all.. divorce is tough on everyone involved.. so to have a group like you have getting along so well and doing things together is great.
my parents divorced when i was around 5 and they hated each other all their lives.. i have been married twice and can't stand the thought of seeing.. much less talking to my ex-wife, so i really admire what what you got going on.

I can relate real well, Top. I think it is good for the kids to see the adults in their lives being civilised and even amicable to each other. I am still included in many holiday activities with my ex's family along with his new partner. Jacob loves it and seems to thrive on it. One time he looked around at all of us and laughed and said, "Hey, all my parents are here!" :D
