Yes you do. I recognize that these events and conflicts are very hard on the children -- but it is one of the consequences of divorce. Sometimes these things can be negotiated. Possibly dad will bring them to these events.

Just to amplify Ms. Langford's very capable answer. Check the order and see if there is an exception for "choosing to be saved" or "we never do anything". If you find that language, OK. If not, you will be the one found in contempt and your daughters can visit you in jail. Good Luck.
