Who do you have to explain it to? Your daughters? Talk with them about your boundaries and I bet they would agree with them. Just say you would love to have your W at the birthday but within your boundaries. Seriously, you do wish your W would be there but you also have self respect and have boundaries that they also agree with. Now its your W's problem if she can't come to the party.
Anyone else, just change the subject and move on.
