Adult Grandchildren ungrateful or what?

It might cause a commotion...My other son tells me that's just how his brothers kids are. And I shouldn't expect anything of them. But I shouldn't punish them because they weren't brought up right.... He wouldn't let his own kids do that. But, then his family is still together and he is in touch with his kids all the time. The grandchildren (grown) that are my problem, come from a divorced couple and for many years my son didn't have much communication with either of them.
Maybe it's just me. Why can't I give for the joy of giving to them and let it go? Right? Do I need...what? Adoration? I never thought I was THAT type! Maybe I am!?!

It’s purely an issue about common courtesy, a good character trait that is needed in all aspects of life. Good manners start at home and although I understand the way things are today with busier parents and more single parent families, we must still strive for good manners, I don’t think we’re asking for adoration, just some good old fashioned respect.
