I need some honest opinions, I'm feeling a bit guilty.
I got tickets in kids week to see the musical Bend it like Beckham with dh and our 2 older daughters aged 12.5 and 14. The girls are really looking forward to not only the show but an evening out with us without dd3 (8) who can be quite naughty at times.
I have booked a babysitter for dd3 and promised her she can watch a film on tv of her choice. However she's kicking up a fuss and I'm feeling guilty now. I didn't manage to get her 1st or 2nd choice of babysitter so she's now complaining about not only the babysitter, but about being too little for stuff, it's not fair etc.
For context, we do a LOT together as a whole family, and also as various combinations of 2 or 3 of us.
I took dd3 to see another kids week show this week, just me and her. Unfortunately she didn't enjoy the show too much, but we still had a nice day out.
I'm wondering whether we should have done 2 of this to see the show this time, and the other 2 another time so dd3 wouldn't feel excluded.

AIBU?
To leave dd3 at home while we go to the theatre?
