Need advice (LONG)UPDATED

So I decided to talk to DH about attending the Christening and he was ok with it.

I went and am so glad I did. I finally got to meet our neice and she is beautiful. My SIL saw me sitting in the back of the church and invited up to sit with the family with really meant a lot to me. There is still a lot of work to do to possibly mend our relationship. And even though DH will possibly never agree to speaking with his sister I have high hopes that I can have a relationship with her my neice (and I just found out my soon to be nephew).

Thank you to the ladies that offered their advice!

I would bring it up to him. Tell him it's not to see, interact with or support his sister, but to see his (and your) niece.

If he refuses, you should just go.

Will he be upset if you go without him?

Well I wouldn't go if he said no. Not because I always do what my DH says but I feel I'd have to respect this decision as it is his sister. And I wouldn't be asking him if he'd go I would be asking about me going alone.

Thank you for your response.

This is also how I feel about it.

If DH felt that strongly about what his sister did, that she isn't worth having a relationship anymore, than I would have to respect that and go along with it. To keep peace at home.

I would also want him to do the same for me if it was my sister or brother.
