My DD (9) was recently in her dance show MIL point blankly refused to come stating too far to drive - I offered her our spare room was told she's too old to stay over at peoples houses! I pointed out there are hotels within 5 min walk of venue (they are not poor and go to hotels at least once a month) again no she is too old to sit through a dance show - my own mum managed it who is the same age.
I have now found out they are driving to the South coast (from north) to see my niece in her show.
My DD is hurt by this and as far as I can see her excuse for not coming (the drive) is obviously an excuse.
She uses her age all the time as an excuse not to do things - she is only early 70s and in good health.
DH will never say anything to her to upset her and just goes along with her excuses but this time DD is hurt. but not sure what I can do/say!
