Feb 18, 2018 at 6:10 | comment | added | Mithical | Unfortunately, this question appears to be asking “What should I do?”, which the community has determined to not be a good fit for Interpersonal Skills Stack Exchange. We can’t decide for you what to do; after you determine what you want to do, we can help you with your goal, but we can’t make these decisions for you. Sorry. | |

Aug 9, 2017 at 6:09 | comment | added | el.pescado - нет войне | BTW. Are there other people invited? If so, "Person A" might just hang out with neutral people and simply not interact with "Family B". There's no rule that every guest must has to interact with every other guest, isn't it? | |
Aug 9, 2017 at 6:07 | comment | added | el.pescado - нет войне | What you mean by "don't like"? There are some people I don't like, and usually when I encounter them we usually have some polite small talk then proceed to ignore one another. Not liking doesn't mean instantly starting a fight. | |

It is their son's first birthday party! That is not the place to start a fight. Brandon's comment really makes me wonder, is kind of people that will not behave if he met someone he dislike? Maybe your concern is too much? (Although you want to make everyone get along, maybe he will be grumpy but not making a scene) What is your goal here?

Aug 8, 2017 at 23:54 | comment | added | Catija | @1006a Person A occasionally brings a spouse but I don't know that they have the same concerns. I say "Family B" because there are three of them and he seems disinterested in seeing all of them, not just a single member of the family, even though his complaint is limited to a single member of the family. | |
Aug 8, 2017 at 23:49 | comment | added | 1006a | How many people are you inviting? Will they all know each other? Also, you mention "Family B" but only "Person A"—does that mean there are more than two B's, and A will be coming solo? | |

Aug 8, 2017 at 21:15 | comment | added | Catija | @Vylix It's just... a party... kid parties in the US don't usually involve sit-down dinners. Just a bunch of people hanging out in a house, decorations, snacks... hoping the kid doesn't have a melt down. That sort of thing. | |
Aug 8, 2017 at 21:14 | comment | added | Vylix | What is the nature of this event? A dinner in a table? An indoor and outdoor party? Can you "separate" A and B so A doesn't have to see B (even though he know B will be coming)? | |

Aug 8, 2017 at 19:06 | comment | added | Catija | @OldPadawan I'm not sure how I would hold a second birthday party. Do note that on SE we welcome all answers, so even if the answer doesn't work for me, someone else may be in a similar situation, so that may work for them. I've certainly heard of people using a solution similar to that. | |
Aug 8, 2017 at 19:03 | comment | added | OldPadawan | Is talking to one (say A) and explain you don't want them to be bothered with B, and that you will hold a second event especially for them, something you can think of ? | |
