because I think my sister is out of order?
Niece is having a bowling party for her 6th birthday next week and has invited loads of kids. My sister invited my 3 (4, 15 and 17). My other sister also has 3 children (3, 6 and 10) and I've just found out that only the 2 youngest have been invited. The eldest has been left out as he's 'too old'.
My sister's have had a massive row over this and are no longer speaking. First sister thinks this is acceptable as my older 2 will be there more as helpers than guests and none of the other invitees are bringing older siblings. Second sister thinks it extremely mean as none of the other invitees are family and to invite all the cousins except 1 is cruel. She so upset and hurt about it that none of hers will be going. I agree with her and can't imagine leaving out one of my sisters' children in this way.
So would IBU to pull out of the party so we can all do something nice with second sister and her children instead?
