What to do? UPDATE pg 5

That's kind of a hard one. I agree with Alecia, maybe there is a friend on the team that can take your daughter while you go to the wedding. Or maybe your DH can take your daughter while you go to the wedding and they just meet you after?

I don't think that missing this one game makes you a bad mom! Does your daughter have a friend who she can ride with to the game and spend the day with?

My daughter isn't invited to the wedding And I don't really know anyone that I trust enough to take my daughter for me. Maybe I'll go and my Husband sit this one out? I don't want to be selfish though.

I would be kind of pissed if my friend missed my wedding (a once-in-a-lifetime event) for her kid's cheerleading "game". Especially after you already RSVPd. And this is from someone who cheered in high school and college, so I'm not downing cheerleading by any means. Peewee cheer is not that big of a deal, they're not even competing, and it's not that big of a deal if you miss one game! Ask one of the other moms to take lots of pics for you!

What was your plan for if the game was at 9a? I mean for watching your daughter.

You already RSVPed to the wedding and she has likely already turned in numbers. Go to the wedding, she will have other games!

@Annakay511 Do your kids cheer also?

I would get a baby sitter this once. I wouldn't miss a wedding that's a once in a lifetime event for a game.

I would have my daughter go to the game with one of the other cheerleaders or I would have one of her grandparents or aunt or uncle take her so that she doesn't miss her first game and you can still make the wedding.

@LindseyO Take her with us and have a friend watch her while we were at the wedding.

@MrsCoakley That's what I am leaning towards, however it won't be easy breaking the news to her

Is your H your daughters father? I fnot maybe her biological father could take this one ( I don't know your relationship with him if H is not her father).

Otherwise, I would tend to say go to the wedding. Especially if it is a close friend. Your daughter will be cheering all season long, and you can promise that next year you will attend first game. I'd see how she feels about you missing it.

Do you have anyone (not necessarily another parent since you said you don't trust them with her) like a babysitter or grandparent or local friend that would be willing to take her to the game? I definitely think you should go to the wedding.

@OGKathryn Yes, Lol strange question. But yes he is her biological father.

Ladies, I do not have anyone that could take her to the game or pick her up unfortunately. If I did this would be much easier to decide.

Not really, point was if not the father could possible take her.

She isn't friends with anyone on the team?

I didn't realize that if you didn't go to game she wouldn't be able too. I guess I would ask H to stay with her. Sucky situation.

Can you talk to the coach and ask if she can tag along with someone for the day? This doesn't seem too hard.

Geez. This is a hard decision. Idk, maybe have H sit this one out and you go by yourself. You must not have any family around close to you. I would probably start a relationship with one of the other cheerleader mom's so in case another situation like this happens again at least you will have someone to take her.

The coach might be willing to take her if needed. These situations do happen and parents do send kids with other parents/coach. If I was your friend I would be pretty upset if you missed it because of this.

I would go to the wedding. I don't have kids, but I don't really understand why no other parent or coach or anyone can take her to game.

When my parents were out of town my nephews coached picked them up for football practice when I couldn't. Have a chit chat with the coach and see if there is something that can be worked out. If she has a friend on that team that could be helpful too!

How old is she?
