   Welp. If my sister is going to be at Christmas this year, then I have to buy her kids a gift.

   Literally, I decided not long ago that I wasn't sending her kids Christmas gifts this year for sure, because she's basically been pretending that I don't exist, so I'm going to let her be.

   But if her kids are at Christmas, and I give their cousins gifts but not them...now THAT would be mean to them.

   It's not a big deal. It's just funny that THIS year I had decided for sure not to do that.

     I think that's reasonable and maybe even a really good choice. It sounds very similar to how I feel: it's not malicious—it's just that if people don't choose to acknowledge your existence, you don't have to try to maintain the semblance of a relationship that isn't there.
