| When parents are expected to stay at a birthday party for a child, how long should the party last? Is an hour and a half too short? I hate torturing adults!! |

| 2 hours for the crowd that requires parents staying. |

| I feel like people always trickle in the first 15 minutes or so, and then 1.5 hours is too short. |

| Venue parties are 90 minutes. If it's an at home party I would set it for 2 hours but expect people to start leaving around the 90 minute mark. |

| I think 90 minutes is fine for preschool aged kids. Two hours for K and up. |
