[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dad’s only in town that one day??

I’d have him come over at 10 or 11 for coffee/bagels, then mom later that day for dinner at 4.

If dad complains, too bad. Tell him you are not making yourself miserable when you just had a baby - presumably he knows the deal and he & your mom have not been in a room in a while. [/quote]

This.

Men are more normal and easy. If your dad can't live up to the men being more normal and cool then it's a red flag. Your mom being a women is entitled to being insane and difficult. [/quote]

What????

No. Maybe you didn’t read further, but parents did not even want to be in the same room for OPs wedding - the dad knows what’s up. OP had plans with mom for thanksgiving. Dad invited himself, knowing full well they have this acrimonious relationship & put OP in the middle, once again.

OP has spent the last how many years with mom on thanksgiving because it is moms birthday. Now dad says he wants to show up & play nice dad/granddad & meet child, knowing how he & grandmom have made OP’s last 20 years difficult by never being able to get along, even for her wedding?

Yeah, this guy is super normal & easy. [/quote]
