How would you politely tell your ex’s parents to stop sending you and your kids gifts?

They’ve been a huge part in our lives for 6 years. I love them as much as my own parents. But my ex has moved on and has hurt me so deeply. I’m struggling to cope with it all. But they live 5 hours away so i’ll probably never see them again. They sent us birthday gifts and each one hurt, reminding me of what I’d lost. I don’t want them sending Christmas gifts. But I can’t find the words to say goodbye either. I feel like I should explain as I know my ex won’t have said anything. They still don’t know why he got divorced.

Sounds like a lovely relationship, except for the ex. Even more so that they still reach out to you.

Awkward if they don't know why yiu divorced. Have to also explain to the kids why grandparents stopped loving them.
