[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its one night. I can't imagine going through life being this rigid and uptight [/quote] I take the opposite view: it's a preschool birthday party. Literally zero impact to skipping it, while sleep routines are important. And an exhausted toddler is not going to have a good time. OP, your husband can go say hi, socialize, and bring a gift if that will smooth things over. But I'd keep the kid home. Likely your SIL won't care either way. [/quote] I agree with this. I would not mess with the sleep routines of a 3 and 4 year old for a birthday party. None of the children will remember who was there. Stay home with the kids and send the husband to celebrate with his sister. [/quote] Send the husband? As if he can't make his own mind up. The husband will be taking the child apparently. OP can just feign illness and make up the lie like she wants to avoid going because she can't stand her SIL.[/quote]
