[quote=Anonymous]Regardless of who owns fault for what in this scenario, I think it might be helpful to sit down with your daughter and talk about what outcome she's looking for here, whether it's realistic (and if not, what's the next-best option), and whether her approach is likely to get her what she wants. If what she wants is to have her father at her graduation without his wife, that's probably not realistic (not just because of the specific facts of your case, but because people usually aren't going to side against their spouse, and because the person asking someone else to choose typically loses in favor of the person making no such demands). So what's the next-best outcome, having her father there with his wife? Not having her father there at all? Letting father come with his wife but agreeing that she will see him later on and not before/after the ceremony itself?[/quote]
