This has to be a troll, right?

What about the siblings? Should they go too, or is it okay for them to go to the wedding?

Did you graduate college?

Omg. You are horrible. Just horrible. I feel so sorry for your child.

If you're not a troll, you are a horrible and disgraceful parent. Your daughter is self-centered because she would expect her family to want to be at her graduation?

I hope she is strong enough to get far away from all of you, succeed in all that she does, and never look back.

Troll. But if this is real, you'll regret going to the wedding when you're sitting alone in the retirement home sad because no one comes to visit you.

Troll

Not even funny. Not a good troll post at all.

+1 million! I'd have been devastated if my parents had skipped my graduation to attend a cousin's wedding.

this must be a troll post... but i'll bite..... WTF WOULD MAKE YOU ASK SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND BE SERIOUS? your "cousin's son" is getting married? That is not even like your immediate family. I could see being torn if you had a kid getting married on the same day as another's graduation, but in this case you're wrong and YOU are the self-centered one... Be there for your daughter. GOD I'd slit my wrists if I had a mother / father like you...

Your daughter is right. It's your daughter vs. a first cousin once removed. College graduation is a big deal. I hope you're a troll.

No. You really don't want to attend your daughter's graduation???

I tend to think this isn't a real post, but if it is I'd say your child's graduation outweighs your cousin's son's wedding.

My kid is graduating from college in May. Unfortunately, my cousin's son is getting married that same weekend. I would much prefer to go to the wedding. My other kids are planning on going to the wedding as well. They are an eight hour drive apart, so the only way we could do both is if we woke up at 3am and drove up on Sunday in time for the ceremony at 1pm, but then we would miss other weekend festivities and be exhausted. (The wedding is in a location where we could not fly and get there in time.)

When my kid found out we were all planning to go to the wedding instead, she got upset. She claims that since we and she went to her older siblings' graduations from college and law school, we should go to her college graduation. I think she is being kind of self centered. Clearly a wedding is more important than a graduation.

Thoughts?
