[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's adults-only or ALL kids. Those are your options. Literally any etiquette book, expert or advice columnist would tell you this.[/quote] Right. If you were in this situation you would exclude a 75 year old man's grandchildren or allow two boys who aren't even related to ruin the event. Sure you would, Miss Post.[/quote] How limited is your thinking? [b]Have an adults only, elegant affair. Then have a casual, family only party so that face could be saved if they act up.[/b] That's just one idea off the top of my head. It's called being resourceful.[/quote] No. Two events are not necessary. The celebration that OP has arranged is enough. Her dad is very close to his grand kids and would be heartbroken if they were not present. Having a second, family only party just to save face would be enabling. And that's what is wrong with the SIL and her unruly boys now, too much enabling.[/quote]
