Good Idea
Quote From: kandyland2I believe that you can get to this party for your niece & feel just fine since this is for HER, not your FIL or SIL. They will be there, yes, but the whole idea of this party is to celebrate your niece's birth-day. I agree with you that it's up to your husband to deal with his family when it comes to how they treat you; however, if they are still at the point that they do not want to listen or acknowledge that the past is the past, and to move forward, then I would suggest that you and your husband discuss a time limit on how long to be at this party. As long as your niece knows that you two were there FOR HER, that is the only thing that will count. By the way, thanks for your input regarding my situation. That's a great idea to plan on how long to be at the party. Shoot, I was hoping someone would say, yeah, just stay away. Actually what I really was hoping for was that if I stayed away that someone else in the family would say something to them about how they were acting and that their actions were affecting the family (by keeping me away and making my husband unhappy.)
