SJSinNYC, it is hurtful when someone has a psak that makes you feel rejected, however our opinion is not really what counts in Yiddishkeit. The only opinion that is accepted is Torah and Daas Torah. My parents actually got a similar psak. They are allowed to invite our family who carries as long as they don’t carry to their house. It was a little of an uncomfortable situation but for the sake of Shalom and to maintain the closeness of the family they accepted this and don’t carry to my parents’ home. Just as you expect people to accept other peoples’ more makil psakim whether or not they understand it, you must respect more machmir psakim whether or not you accept it even (especially)if it affects you indirectly in which case you are nogeia badavar and cannot think straight about it.
