I'd tell them what you told us.

I don't think white lies are productive in the long run.

You're an adult. You don't have to do anything you don't want to do.

No but you have to have the courage to say no to your parents and then stand behind your statement.

I have no interest, DC doesn't want to sleep away from our house, would probably mess up DC's sleep schedule. My parent wants us to go. Also concerned that mentally ill relative could spur argumentative conversation bad for DC. Am I obligated to attend?
