[quote=Anonymous]DD is turning 10 and having a sleepover birthday party this weekend. One friend RSVP'd yes a few weeks ago but the mom texted yesterday to say that they have decided to go out of town next weekend. She would like for her daughter to still spend the night but she wants to pick her up at 6:30am the next morning. She also said "it would be great if the kids didn't stay up too late". I replied that of course that was fine but couldn't guarantee that the kids wouldn't stay up late. I offered that another option would be to have her daughter stay late and one of us could drive her home around 9:30 or 10. This seems more reasonable to me, rather than having to wake her up so early and have her ready to be picked up. The mom seemed offended by this and is now saying that "it sounds like it would be better if we just skip the party all together". Did I handle this wrong? I feel really bad and I also know my DD will be disappointed that her friend is no longer coming. [/quote]
