[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP.. originally you said " She says my [b]nephew [/b]can't come because of this soccer tournament. "[/quote] OP updated later to say that she'd provided different details at first to see if that would change the response. So the "nephew" is actually her younger niece, and the sport is not soccer. I agree with a poster several pages back who said that many of us on each side of the issue were projecting our own things on to OP's situation. For my part, I would generally say a wedding trumps virtually any sporting event. But the specific example she gave of a kid who is just starting out on a high school team made me very nervous for the kid--based completely on negative consequences one of my children faced in dealing with an autocratic and not very astute high school coach.
