Divorce etiquette?

I have almost all of the photos that were ever taken during my marriage, minus what might on his phone maybe. I have every vacation, every event, all school pictures, all class pictures of our kids during each grade, etc. Of course I have all of the wedding photos too.

I also have every card, every picture drawn, every ornament, and pretty much every single thing that the children made us during the 15 year marriage.

I have all of the report cards or the school awards or the art pictures sent home as well.

He did not ask for a single bit of it. I even had to give him back his own childhood pictures that his mother gave to us.

Is this typical?

I recently went through some of it and thought about giving him some of it but then thought no, if he wanted it he would’ve asked for it.

Depends on the person. Some people when a relationship ends make a hard break on everything. Sometimes they regret it later and wish they kept some important things.

As others said. Anything you don't want to keep yourself but they might want later. See if there is a neutral friend or family member you can leave them with.

Sometimes people react one way when emotions run high but respond differently later when they have some emotional distance from the situation.
