Hi everyone, ok so my daughters bday is going to be in two weeks where shes turning 2. So we are throwing her a birthday party at her grandmas house but thenissue is that im a christian mother and my husband & his family are not and their friends neither which they will invite but the thing is thatnthey will be having music that doesnt please God and alcohol. which i dont think is ok but they dont understand ofcourse and i want to invite my christian friends but it will be akward. I dont know how to make it work with two different worlds?? Any advice? Has anybody gone through this? Also i already suggested to my husband if we can do it at the church but he doesnt want to and im pretty sure if i put christian music tfeyll think im crazy? Lol

well the only thing I can think of if you and your husband cant come to an agreement is have two seperate parties ... so you and your christian friends can be comfortable and so your husband can stil havel the type of party that him and his family would like to have... so that there is no conflict on such an important day...God bless you ...hope all goes well !!

Two things: 1) why is it necessary to have alcohol at a 2-yr-olds party. That seems a but ridiculous. There's absolutely NO reason to have alcohol at a toddlers party. It's inappropriate. Tell them no alcohol or no invite.
2) if your Christian friends are truly good friends they will not be offended at what the other people and if they are they will not blame it on you. So you may just assume they will feel that way because you are ashamed of how they act. Tell them what they may expect. Let them choose to come or not.

I agree with Jordache, alchohol does not belong at a 2 year olds party.The party is for the child not the adaults.

The description of the party indicates that is more for adults than a two year old.... but that is normal among worldly folk.

Nothing wrong with people drinking beer/ wine etc... but music not appropriate for your parents is not appropriate for your daughter either.

Try to explain to your mother-in law that you do not wish for your daughter to be exposed to music not intended for her etc...

I know you will not be popular...

Let your folks know in advance what expect, and let them decide for themselves.
