[quote=Anonymous]I am the child of a very acrimonious divorce and generally I am very team 'parents can suck it up' but in this case OP I am giving you some serious side eye.

You KNOW they hate each other. You had plans with your mom established. Why did you not just tell your dad this and figure it out? How long have they been divorced? I would NEVER set MYSELF up to have to hang out with them both on the same day.

There is no best case scenario here, if they both come it will be awkward AF and everyone will be testy. They don't like each other and are open about it and you are actually the one imposing this on THEM instead of the other way around.

My answer would be ENTIRELY different btw if this was some family event like your child's event at school or a graduation or a wedding or christening or birthday where there is a compelling reason for them to both be there at the same time and they are just making it about themselves. But here you are pulling a bait and switch on your mom. [/quote]
