[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that no, it is not okay.  But these questions always remind me of when my kids were in preschool.  Most invitations were silent regarding siblings so naturally, I brought my one invited child.  I would get to the party and it would be swarming with siblings and sometimes TWO parents per family and the entire party I'd have people asking me, "Where is [uninvited sibling]?" and I'd just say, "Home with [DH]."  But so wanted to say, "I left him home because the invitation DID NOT SAY SIBLINGS WELCOME!!!"[/quote]

I have a 3 and a 1 year old and everyone wants to know where my DH and 1 year old are. It's for sure a problem. [/quote]
No, it's not a problem. They are just making conversation. Trust me, they don't really want another kid and adult mouth to feed there.[/quote]

Unless the people asking are the hosts, it doesn't matter.  Perhaps the party is swarming with siblings and the hosts are gritting their teeth thinking "we didn't mean to invite all of you!"[/quote]
