kids birthday party-They never cut/served the cake.

[Anonymous]

It was weird. Kid blew out the candles and then that was that.

This was a 4 year old birthday party with about 10 kids and at least one adult per kid but most had both parents with them and some had siblings as well.

It was like-he blew out the candles and they just moved on. Is this some new thing? This is my third kid and i’ve never experienced this weirdness.

I’m not friends with the birthday kids parents or I would have just asked.

I have friends who did this. They’re really weird about dye and sugar but want to have the party look right, so the cake is whisked away right after singing. My secret theory is that the parents binged on it later.

This is something you’ll see up through kindergarten, but by 1st grade most parents have chilled out and are more realistic about their ability to control kids’ behavior (theirs and others) by controlling food intake.

Guess it’s not a waste if they’re eating it solo later?!

Super creepy and weird! Tell your kid to avoid that child from now on.

This is even worse than when they cut the wedding cake for show and then serve you grocery store sheet cake. The kids didn't even get anything.

My guess is this is also a first child.

Really? I’d feel sorry for the kid for having weird parents.

+1

How bizarre. Normally kids would be asking. Also cake usually a serves as an “it’s almost the end of the party” social cue, so this would be very confusing for guests.
