Is this fair?

I’m a stay home mom, primary care taker for a 10 month old, and low income. my daughter’s birthday is 2 months away and my partner wants to throw a party at his family’s house. The issue is that our family does not get along with each other. So having a party at his family’s house and inviting my family isn’t ideal. So he suggested that we have separate parties. The second issue is that I can’t afford to throw one my self. I don’t think it’s fair at alll but unsure if someone else has a different perspective the me

If he can fund it, definitely do it to avoid conflict. But if he's not willing to help financially then it's a lot to expect from you

If he doesn’t wanna help fund it financially then he can stuff it and your families can each get over themselves for the sake of your daughter. My husband and I both have divorced parents and refuse to do separate things on their account. They can get over it for a couple hours. And if they have problems they can leave

So assuming weather means indoor party you can try and find a local community center to reserve for a party. I’m pretty sure the fees are either free or extremely low depending on the center. Usually I’d suggest a party at the park or something.

If it being at your in laws’ house is the issue then suggest throwing it somewhere thats neutral territory. If he’s not willing to do that to include your family, that’s definitely not fair.

Can you guys have a party at a park or somewhere and have families together or is it a big no for each other’s families being together?

Damn maybe if nobody can get along then there will be no party tell the adults to grow up it’s not about them it’s about the new life coming into this world if they can’t set there differences aside from that then that’s sad and selfish on there part.They are coming to the party for u and the baby not to visit eachother families they don’t have to talk. Read this to them it might open there eyes

@Mella Hear hear! Anyone who can't get along for the sake of the baby isn't invited
