Very hard to understand your op. If you don't want to go then just decline.

Arlanymor · 28/12/2025 16:53

I'm not sure I got the full gist of what you are trying to say, but if you don't want to go then don't. It doesn't matter what other people say, if you don't want to be in their company then just decline.

Don’t go

If you want to oil the wheels of the relationships between you and ILs, ‘ex-ish’ DP, the kids, then go. It’s worth an hour rather than them bad-mouthing you, surely?

I’d probably go. I’d have to paint on a smile and be glad when it was over.

Thanks for your replies. To. Be honest I don’t like going down there even my kids who are older teenagers don’t like it. It’s very forced .
when I go and pick my daughter up if she occasionally goes I don’t even get to go inside. I think I will decline I Ts less to be grateful for or get named called later.

Say you already have plans, no one can argue with that or talk about you behind your back!

Not really sure what you’re saying. Is English your first language? Seems like you didn’t go and probably a good thing as your kids are older and you don’t need any relationship with your in laws as they and your ex are mean. Ignore the in laws and have basic contact with ex only as required.

Yes it is. I thinks it’s quite clear the point of the conversation
