Okay, One of my older sisters is getting married. She is 35 years old and I am 31. She is actually getting married in the same place that I did. My son is 7 and has autism. One day when my sister and her fiancé’ were at my parents house, I was there also. When I left the room he told my parents that it was not going to be a good idea for my son to came to their wedding. He said that he would not be invited to come and I needed to figure out what I was going to do with him. First of all I know that it is their wedding and they can invite anyone they want to. However my son is immediate family and he would be hurt by this. He would be excluded from pictures and everything. All my other nieces and nephews are invited to come. Also the way my sisters fiancé is around my son is strange. He yells at my son and acts very uncomfortable around him. My son is very affectionate and has tried to hug and kiss this guy but he acts so strange about it. I can understand to a point and have tried to understand this behavior but it is just cruel. I have to put up with a lot on a daily basis. Having a child who does not “fit into society” (I hate that kind of talk) is so hard. He will miss out on a lot of stuff that other kids will get to do. I am so upset about this and it ended causing me to get into an argument with my sister. First they lied and said that nothing like that was said to my parents, but my mom and dad are not liars. Secondly I felt like he should have came to me and said this. I am the mother. The way it was done behind my back was so disrespectful. I was there in the house. He could have had this conversation with me. I felt like that was a wimpy way of doing it. Anyway I told my sister that if my son was not invited then I was not coming. There are also other issues going on with my sister as well that I have no room to put in here. Anyway she sent me hateful e-mails cussing me out and calling me names. My whole family says that I need to patch things up with her but I feel like I need to stand up for my son. He does not deserve this. Should I stick to my guns and not go to her wedding
