[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 595677, member: 14356"] That just stinks. I am so sorry for how you are feeling today. It should be a joyous occasion with happy nerves, not edgy, irritated, sad nerves. It is sad that you were 'invited' to attend her graduation. And that you were probably only invited for the gift. Of course, that gift is optional. You don't have to give her a gift. You could give her a beautiful card and tell her you love her and you're proud of her. We never got gifts for grades or graduation or anything like that when we were kids. The fact that you earned the diploma was your reward. Sit with your husband and easy child if you can - away from your parents. I understand that feeling of having lost her. I try to look at difficult child like it's a temporary thing. A phase he is going through. Something he is going to get past and hopefully, eventually, he will come around. In the meantime all I can do is hold my ground, be pleasant when I speak to him and wait. Hugs to you. I hope you find a way to get through tonight and actually enjoy watching her graduate. [/QUOTE]
