[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I appreciate that this can be a real problem but the suggestion that siblings need to be completely banned from public settings is unhinged.[/quote]

Can you quote who said siblings should be banned? Pretty much universally this is people taking a "siblings only" invite then RSVPing for 4 people. Weird that people are so incredulous that this has ever happened and arguing that the host must have forgotten to say "no siblings".[/quote]

It's because the people who are mad have taken 8 pages to answer whether they wrote "no siblings" and torpedoed every suggestion for self-help along the way.  It sounds like you can either talk to the parents who are doing this, or stop inviting their kids to the parties.  Or you can plan a party that can accommodate people who just show up without extra expense.  Or you can keep doing the same thing and venting on DCUM.[/quote]

Ok so the thing is, nobody feels the need to tell you whether they wrote "no siblings" because it's irrelevant. The party is only for those who are invited. [/quote]
