[quote=Anonymous]With the exception of parents and grandparents, should aunts, uncles and cousins be expected to attend out of town graduations? My Aunt got extremely upset with me a few weeks ago because I said (politely) that my family couldn’t just drop everything to fly 800 miles away to attend my cousins college graduation. My DH barely knows this cousin of mine and had a major work project going on at the time, and our own kids had various end of the year activities that we knew were important for them to attend. I’m also not particularly close with this cousin as she’s almost 20 years younger than me. I understand that college graduations are big events, but for extended family, they’re pretty boring and then n this case expensive, since it required airfare and lodging. Should extended family be expected to attend these?[/quote]
