[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does the invite say?

At my synagogue the service is open to anyone, so I would think even if your kid was only invited, you could go to the service if you want.[/quote]

The invite is addressed to my child only. I don’t know the parents at all. I may have met them once last year. [/quote]

You’re welcome to go to the service, only your child s invited to the party.[/quote]

This. Many parents are happy to have other parents at the ceremony but I've personally not heard of anyone going if they are not close to the family. DD attended about 12 last year and we only went once to the ceremony but we have known the child and the family forever so he's more like a brother than just another friend.[/quote]

Are you saying not close friends usually don’t go to the ceremony at all?[/quote]

Usually not but in general, anyone who wanted to attend would be free to do so, but no expectation. [/quote]
