[quote=Anonymous]1. She didn’t invite herself to the party. Staying to be available to support your child is different than being a guest at the party. I’m pretty sure she’s not asking you to provide her with a goody bag and the chance to bounce, bowl, shoot lasers, play arcade games, etc. 2. As a parent, you should understand that a child’s well-being and safety is their parent’s top priority and should expect to accommodate that. Even if I was planning to drop off, if I bought my child to a party and found the hosting parent was more focused on their personal socializing than supervising, I would begrudgingly feel obligated to stay and provide some supervision. 3. If personal socializing is your priority, you should be grateful to parents who are willing to supervise, because kids at a birthday party are going to be much more disruptive to your chitchat than another parent.
