[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She sounds like a real jerk. She was pushy. She left a younger child that would require more supervision. She was rude about a favor for the toddler, and instead of criticizing you in your earshot, she should’ve told the toddler that the favors were for party guests but maybe her sisters would share. You were gracious to problem-solve and offer a balloon, which most toddlers love. Next year if you invite the oldest kid, specifically tell this mother in advance that NO SIBLINGS can come. And if she asks you at the time of dropoff, say no. [/quote] Clever comeback: “[Birthday girl] already gave up her favor bag to Bo, since she wasn’t on the guest list so there wasn’t already one for her. Other than this balloon, I can’t manufacture an extra favor bag out of thin air for yet another child who wasn’t on the guest list. Maybe your girls can share with their sister.”[/quote]
