Never said that the op demanded but saying she won't go because she doesn't agree with the bride and groom is very childish. You are correct in saying there is history between the two but it does seem to go both ways.
I never demanded anything, I am simply saying that if my daughter isn't family enough to attend then I will choose not to either. If my sister can make a choice of who to invite to her wedding than I get to make the choice as to whether I want to attend or not.
I don't know what you mean by saying the history doesn't go both ways. I agree it is one sided in that I have attended every graduation, birthday, even softball games for my sister. Dragging along an infant to her high school graduation even. My dd and I call her on every birthday, send cards etc. All of this because my parents raise me to believe that family was important and that my sister's feelings would be hurt if I wasn't there for her. That is why I chose her as my dd's godmother, because I believed that she would love her as a family member and care for her the way I care for my siblings and nieces and nephews on my husband's side. She is the one who has not attended my family functions and she is the one not including a family member in the wedding not me.
