[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it a financial hardship for you to attend? Then either don't go, or just send your husband. This is FINE.

Is it not a financial hardship and you're just upset about the reception non-invite? Then think ahead: in 10 years, would you rather be a little salty about an event where your kids only participated in 50% of it, or would you rather not have gone and made your point? If you choose the former, make sure you don't tell your kids they are missing a big party, and make it sound like they are having a grand old time at the other festivities. Honestly, they won't know a big difference and you can tell them they're gonna go swim with a sitter while you go to boring grown-up stuff.

It's rude, but who gets to go to the reception is not in your hands anymore. You just have to make a decision about what you'll participate in. [/quote]

What kind of irresponsible parent would leave their kids in a strange country with a stranger sitter to go swimming while mom and dad party?

That is wrong on so many levels.

[b]Maybe OP can do something with the kids while dad goes to the reception?[/b]

Read the OP. She already planned a sitter to watch the kids for the majority of the reception.[/quote]
