Adult Grandchildren ungrateful or what?

The fault lies with your son and the values he has not instilled in your grandchildren. You should have talked to your son before now. If children are taught from a young age to send a short note it would have carried over into adulthood.

Let's not use strong words here like "fault" and "should" if you don't know the whole story, please. Oh, I HAVE talked to him...many times! And he has talked to his kids many times. They were rather young and didn't live with him after the divorce; he did see them a lot, but there were other influences in their lives that were not, shall we say, interested in having those children have a good relationship with my side of the family. I think there was an unnecessary pulling of those kids away...I believe my son did as much as he could given his situation.
