I was married 10 years, but no kids, so the communication was cut off, although I could have kept it up.
I dealt with an ex still hanging around my ex husbands family. She made it very uncomfortable for us and his family made it no better. It was messy. They felt we couldn't pick their friends and we felt betrayed. I speak to ex's on the rare ocassion we see each other, but not friends. Especially if you are married, it's not cool.

With kids, it's virtually mandatory. With small children, you have to have at least a working relationship for the sake of the younguns'. That's not always easy.
Because they're small you gotta buy Mother's day, birthday and Christmas gifts at least until the kids reach the age where they can either buy/make these things for themselves.
Trust me, it takes PRAYER to buy a gift for someone you ain't feelin' no more like that...believe dat.
