[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes adults behave in very immature ways. It is unrealistic of you to expect people who hate eachother to get alone. Either invite them all and let those who don't want to be there decline or take turns. If they all decide to to come to an event knowing the other is there just respect the fact they dislike eachother. Don't push them together. Let them chose opposite sides of the room. If they complain about eachother just remove yourself from the conversation. You don't get to tell them how to behave. All you get to do is set your boundaries. If it's too stressful having them all at an event, take turns.[/quote]

OP here. I don't care if they hate each other but they both want to come to alllllllll the things and then run me through the ringer leading up to it and often afterwards too by complaining about the other or how I handled the event. I know I can just tell them that they can't come to something or not invite them, but DD loves it when they come. She loves knowing that they came to see her. I'm not going to take that away from her. They don't have to have a conversation even. Just a hello or not even rolling their eyes would be a start. And both sets want to sit with us, so that's always a thing too. I'm just over it. I have to deal with people I don't care for all of the time and can be civil. They need to suck it up and stop making it about them. [/quote]
