My youngest went to a much less prestigious school than the rest of us (same alma mater) and she is saying that we don't want to come because it isn't prestigious enough, which is not true. We visited her other siblings more since it was our alma mater, but we would go to her graduation if it wasn't for 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?

Drinking problem, OP?

Who wants to sit through a graduation (and really, BFD, so you went to school, people go to school every day, biiiiiiiig accomplishment). Borrrrrrrrrring!
And for real, it's not some stranger... it's her COUSIN'S SON. That's like... practically one of her kids.
But anyway, troll, do they even graduation dates this far in advance? Maybe she'll fail some classes and have to wait until next winter.
Hi OP. You must really enjoy acting like a 12 yo...
