We have been invited to a very dear friend's civil partnership. We are absolutely delighted for him. Until now he has been quite unlucky in love and has been very down about previous relationships. We couldn't be happier that such a lovely man has found happiness at last!
The whole family has been invited (3 DCs) and we were making plans at the weekend about logistics and practicalities, babysitters at the venue etc.
MIL was absolutely horrified when it dawned on her we were planning to take the children as she feels it is highly inappropriate although knows our friend well and is happy for him.
So is MIL being unreasonable or are we?
