[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have good relationships with my grown kids, my parents, and my sibling. In a family populated by mature adults who how to get along and where parents don't (or aren't perceived to) play favorites and no one is seething with resentment or looking for opportunities to be offended, mom goes to visit the child who just had a baby. The birthday party goes on without her, and she visits the birthday child at the next possible opportunity. The young birthday child takes no offense because it is explained in a no-big-deal way, and even exciting because when grandma comes, there will be a second celebration. Parent of birthday kid takes no offense because a newborn and her parents take precedent over the birthday party of a young child, unless there is reason to think, God forbid, that the young child won't have another birthday. [/quote] +1000. I am baffled by the posters who insist grandma should go to the birthday party just because she RSVP’ed. [/quote]
