Family Party for Commitment.

Yesterday I was invited for the birthday of my cousin's son, my mother says that one must attend family commitments out of obligation and I do not agree with this. Whenever my relatives throw a party of any reason, everything seems harmony at first glance, but they gather in small groups during the reception to sit down and talk bad about each other. Everyone apparently treats you well and the party ends with apparent success. But when two days go by, rumors come to me that they said and spoke ill of everyone, criticizing who came to the reception in bad clothes or who danced in a terrible way or who had a bad drink. I did not go and decided to stay at home, because if you have been invited to a family reception then presumably we should have a good time and together. Nobody goes to a party to be humiliated. That is why I no longer attend these meetings.
Would you attend a family reunion where they make you feel very bad just because of commitment?

When I attend parties it's because I want to enjoy and the person who invited me is also glad to extend invitation.

Of course, the reason must be the union of your loved ones to celebrate and have a good time.

No one should bear these things out of obligation.

There are people who enjoy having parties to notice everything bad ... That is not normal.

My family is very toxic, I wouldn't go if they paid me.

@YuleimaVzla Family shouldn't judge you. Unfortunately many families do tend to do that.

It was exactly what I did, at least in my house nobody is going to judge me.

No reason to attend these if the end result is as bad as this

I decided not to go, and thought that maybe I was being intolerant. But do not tolerate feeling bad

Oh I hate gatherings when people only like to gossip and backbite. I probably wouldn't mind attending just to keep family ties but I would stay away from such conversations.
