[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is your son being potentially recruited to play by college or professional recruiters? If not, he can skip a tournament. And certainly the father doesn't need to be there. How is this even a question?[/quote] Yes, I think this is right question. If son is being recruited or has realistic odds of recruitment, and this is an important showcase tournament, I don’t think it’s unreasonable for him to skip the christening, and I’d send him with another family. Unlike the PP’s example with her grandmother’s birthday, this event is not likely to be one that would have been incredibly meaningful to the older son. If going to the tournament means he won’t see the grandparents/extended family at all, my answer might change, depending how often he typically sees them. There is no excuse for your DH to skip the christening. None at all. That’s really selfish and hurtful to everyone involved. [/quote]
