[quote=Anonymous]I think the posters (and it's most of you) on both sides of the "family v. sports" debate are missing the point. In this particular situation, efforts were made to schedule around the kids' events but the mother screwed up. In addition, the OP hinted that the younger niece was often relegated to a second-class status with respect to activities. That is the real issue here, not the tremendous amount of projecting that's going on. Given that, I pretty much agree with OP that she should be disappointed, but it wouldn't be fair to put her niece in a difficult position. I also don't think it's fair to assume, based on this situation, that the mother prioritizes athletics over family. [/quote]
