[quote=Anonymous]I think scheduling anything that revolves around kids rather than adults, you have to be prepared to be flexible. Kids are cranky, get sick, schedules are off quite often in my experience. I think it's rude as a parent to bring your child to an event when you know they'll have a bad day/time. Do you want parents to drag their DC to your place to have a fit/take a nap there so they don't miss the playdate? I never blow off anything I think DD will enjoy, even when I personally don't feel like going, and I'm sad for us both when she doesn't get to do something fun. I think you should take the high road and assume that when folks cancel they're doing what they think is best for their DC, the event host and others families participating, and are truly sorry to miss out.
