All this drama for no reason.

Stay home, no explaining necessary.
Attending a funeral is not required no matter what anyone tells you.

It sounds like it would be a hardship for you to attend, but I'm not positive. I'm just going by what you said.

I think you should send a lovely bouquet and/or a Harry and David type of gift, make calls to whoever you should give sincere condolences to, and explain your situation. I am sure any reasonable person would understand.

Your husband should make his own decision but you and your daughter should not go. Just tell everyone that you have to work or your daughter can't make the trip.

Your husband's sister is going to pick him up and take him? Problem solved. Stay home with your daughter. I wouldn't send anything more than a card, since your husband is representing your family.

I do not wont to attend my husband s aunt s funeral

Well, I'm not going to make you go.

But this isn't about you. It's about your husband, whose aunt has died. Was he close to her? Is he grieving? What does HE want to do? Whatever it is, you should support him. He knows how you feel about the family, and he knows what your daughter can and cannot handle. If he's OK with you staying home, then stay home. But if he wants you to go to support him, you should suck it up and go.
