[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, my priest baptized DD without DH there. We waited for DH to be able to attend and she was almost a year old. He was working in Africa and somehow it just wasn't working out. She and I were there too but could travel more than he could. Eventually, we said better have her christened than wait longer.
Logistics of travel were a nightmare for DH as flights were not great, and his two bosses kept being arseholes...[/quote]

this would be one of the special circumstances that many of the pp have mentioned.
Unlike the OP who has a dh that is making a choice to put sports before religion.  This is a very different circumstance than OP being a single mother who's ex won't come.  
OP asked if her husband and older child going to a sports game instead of the christening is a big deal.  The answer is YES it is a big deal.  [/quote]
Yes, indeed, it was not what any of us wanted. That is why we kept postponing it so much. But, as malaria was common back then in the country we were in....gosh, best not to say it even now. Choosing a day of sports instead of being there for a christening of your own child is mind boggling.
Did op ever say what the sport is?[/quote]
