[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here again. I think the lesson here for me is for when I have kids and how to navigate this sports (or other activity) world and keep true to my value or priority of family first. How that works within the lives of kids/teens. How to place the context for the family, despite possibly restrictive circumstances and clear benefits of the activities and the commitment to those. Definitely hard. But I keep coming back to - for me - a tournament or sporting event is not more important than a big family event like this (my wedding or if my mom got remarried or if my dad won the nobel prize). I do recognize that as my personal value. Not to be required of others. I think I'm just really still surprised. Maybe that's naive as hell. [/quote] OP, If you are aligning the importance of your wedding with that of winning a Nobel prize, there nothing on this thread (or anywhere) that will satisfy you. You nephew is a horrible, selfish little man child who lives in a self centered world of playing mindless games with balls while he neglects the important things going on in the universe. Your sister is a selfish bitch monster for not forcing said little man to come to your all important event. I can't believe that neither have their priorities set properly on you. Better? [/quote]
