Dear Life Kit: My daughter was left out of the holiday newsletter again!
Briefly

In an ideal world, your daughter would have dealt with this after the first newsletter. She would have presumed good intentions and had a conversation over the phone or in person.
Before the party, have a private conversation with your father-in-law to clear the air and make sure he knows your daughter is really excited to be included in next year's newsletter.
You could also send out an email to the family before the party to let everyone know your daughter's recent accomplishments if she's worried about people remembering her.
This situation may highlight the importance of communication in family dynamics, emphasizing that voicing feelings can be a way to strengthen relationships.
