[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Yes you are weird and codependent on your husband and children to be able to attend adult activities and have a good time. Other people's wedding enjoyment don't hinge on your children being there. Paying $30 for chicken fingers and watching them running around the venue screaming is not enjoyable. and P.S. children don't like weddings.

If you are one of those women who can't do anything without your husband and/or your children for your sibling, that tells me everything I need to know about you.[/quote]

HA. OP here. No, I'm not codependent on my husband and I'm not even upset my kid isn't invited. And my kid isn't a toddler. She wouldn't be running around screaming. I've attended many trips and events solo. The issue is not leaving my kid alone while I celebrate her aunt's wedding. She would know and be deeply hurt. [/quote]

That wasn’t directed at OP rather the obnoxious woman declaring weddings are for families and *gasp clutching pearls* would never go anywhere without her precious children and Dh in tow.

That said though, you do seem to be trying to turn your sisters wedding into being about your daughter. Being sensitive to her feelings is one thing, but do you plan on spending your life turning down outings because your daughter isn’t invited?  She will have to learn about life outside your home and  it not always happening around her feelings. Maybe your sister doesn’t want you at the wedding because it seems your parents and you are focusing on your daughter instead of your sister at her Own wedding. Maybe that’s why she is closer to her friends than you? [/quote]

That's not true. I'm trying to not make it about my family. Which is why I wrote a very nice response to my sister about how happy we are for her. I didn't push AT ALL or even question why she changed her mind about my daughter. As I said before, I suspect it's because she doesn't want her groom's grandkids going. [/quote]
