Just tell me straight- is the uninvited sibling you are bringing to the party going to take a favor?

One cookie per family? People throw “tacky” and “low class” around a lot on DCUM. Not giving out favors to all of of the children you accepted RSVPs for is the epitome of tacky and low class.

DCUM: we don’t want siblings at the party unless we specifically invite them. Get it.

Honestly do you know how evite works? People reply. There’s no formal acceptance process.

Write the invited child’s name on the favor bag. Done.



This is what you do.

Yes. They are children. Just buy other favors or order more cookies.

That’s so unkind. The siblings are just little kids too. Why be so stingy? It’s a fricking cookie.

Just buy extra non custom cookies and give them to siblings. If they’re younger they won’t notice

If you say "we cannot accommodate siblings," you are admitting that you're poor.

Deny it all you want.

I've got this crazy idea that people just stop doing party favors. Every time we get them I make the kids immediately throw them away.

What’s wrong with being poor, and planning the party you can afford?

Those cookies go in the trash, especially if you bought them from someone using their kitchen like Etsy.

Do you as the parent let your child take a favor? I think I’ll have to be proactive and order more, right?


Did you invite them or are they rude and just RSVPed with multiple kids. You don’t have to police the basket. Print out a name tag and tie to each wrapped cookie (or use a sticker). I don’t think you need to provide favors to kids who were not invited.

It’s a custom, pre-ordered cookie. She isn’t rewrapping Chips Ahoy.

You are being cheap. Just order a few more f-ing cookies and don't stress about something so insignificant as an extra child at a party. Be kind, OP.
