Well, that's a tough one. You could try putting it in W's court- "DD would like to celebrate your b-day with you and I think it would be nice if she saw us both there for a cake or something. Is there a particular time/location that works for you?" You could always do a neutral location like a restaurant...
I like that, thanks. Maybe I should add that DD can stay with her in case DD wants to? I don't know, in a way DD needs to learn that we have a set schedule but she's little and whatif she really wants to stay with mom on her b-day? Plus it'd be a nice gesture for W to have DD on her b-day? I don't know...maybe she has her own private plans for her b-day.

Actually, I think ALL of us could use someone to talk to these days, whether we need "help" or not
That's what the cats are for...although lately they just lick themselves and leave the room while I'm trying to have a serious conversation with them about important marital issues lol
No seriously, that's why I come here. In my limited experience the ICs have always swayed us towards D, even the so-called 'family couselors'.
