I have 2 daughters and grandchildren and their partners who want to have Xmas dinner with me. It would be nice for someone else to cook dinner for me for a change but don't want to let the kids down. And I don't actually mind as long as they do the washing up! But when I suggested my man came here too, I was met with a wall of silence by the girls. One likes him, the other one won't have anything to do with him. They say its up to me who I invite but I don't want an atmosphere on Xmas Day round the dinner table. I know its a while off yet but I'm a busy woman and have to get things organised in time so I'm not doing the headless chicken thing. Do I have dinner with my man and let the kids cook their own dinner, do i invite him and have an hour of awkwardness till the drink mellows them? or do something else, like ignore Xmas and go onto Boxing Day?
