[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nieces and nephews are about ten years older than my kids too, and they never came or any of their parties. They also made clear that they had no interest in my kids more generally. Now they are in their twenties and have zero relationship with them. Make her go. It going means she won’t be invited in the future and little kids are people and notice these things. [/quote] Or you’ll just foster resentment. You can build relationships in other ways. Forcing a 16yo to attend a 5yo party so that the parents have a free babysitter is not a good way to encourage positive relationships. [/quote]
