Trusting, I'm not dark w/X's family because I want to be. They have chosen to support X's R w/OW but I do have some sympathy. After all, the MLCers lie to justify their situation, and turning away their child would be very difficult. In X's situation, they also have a second child who I think is also in MLC--or perhaps they just raised two very narcissistic kids.
I send an occasional picture of D to them, although I do not get replies and haven't spoken to them in years now. I do not plan to initiate contact with them. However, if they initiated, I would respond, albeit vaguely as Mermaid suggested.
