Im an 11 year old girl and my moms parents are divorsed. because of that we have two christmases. one at my granfathers and one at my grandmas. Well a month ago we planed this saturday to be at my grandmas. But on monday my BFF invited me to her birthday party whitch would also be on the same saturday. Now this is like my Best friend ever in the world. I told my mom. On that I was invited monday she said I will have to make choices in life. And i can deicde for myself. Now today is tuesdat and she said that i cant go to the party family comes first. Its not fair because i should have the right to make my own choice. I keep begging her to let me go but she said no. Also this same friends threw a suprize party for me last year. So i really want to go to her party. Now that were in middleschool we havent see eachother alot.I am very mad. I really cant miss my BFF not to mention BFFL's party. what should i do????

I know it's hard to understand when you're 11 but family is important. You would not even be alive if it were not for your grandmother. And there'll come a time when she's gone and you'll wish you had spent more time with her when you could.
Perhaps there's a possibility of attending both parties? Maybe you could go see your BFF after coming home from grandma's... ? Or do a special evening with your BFF to make up for missing her party. Talk with your mother and see if she has any ideas how you could attend both parties.
Hope it works out for you.
okay i saw the other comment and yours i am also 11 the truth is how would you like it if you were the grandma it would hurt your feelings that your granddaughter went to the ex-husband Christmas and not theirs and that you chose friend over family i have a great friend that is my best friend and i might not even know her when i am older what if you're mom let u decide and u went to your friend's party what if your grandma died the next morning knowing that you chose you're friend and not her how would that make you feel? You're friend might understand too if she were a true friend then she would understand if you couldn't go i wish i could talk to you in person
anyways it IS your decision so you can only decide just remember family should come first
GOOD LUCK!
why did i get marked down? did i say anything wrong? i am honestly trying to help! i keep getting marked down and the 1 thing all of my stuff has in common is that i say good luck in capital letters...is that bad?well i hope you figured it out and that either way you had a good time!
Thanks for the help. I talked to my mom and not im going to both. The problum with that was my grandma lives 45 min away. so now im just missing an hour of both things.
