[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, reading your post it seems obvious you are pissed at MIL.  So you are thinking about being obstinate about sticking to your plan to go to the game.

I get that she's being a pain but 75th bday parties don't come along every day.  You should put family first.  Your child will probably always remember grandpa's 75th bday party, but not that game.

I would have your DH call the coach however.  [/quote] You might be right, who knows. But what I want to know is why everyone thinks kids will forget everything later on? If I really wanted to go to a game at that age and my parents forced me to go to some dumb family thing I wasn't interested in, I guarantee I'd remember that and how mad I was at the time (even if I understand it as an adult.) Kids have thoughts and feelings and opinions too, and sometimes they're not the ones we as adults agree with. Don't assume that because he's a kid he'll just forget all about it in a month. He might go to the party and have a wonderful time and know he made the right choice, or he might go and have a miserable time and wish he had been at the game.[/quote]
