[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they don’t open it or respond, they aren’t interested.  It’s an invitation not a summons.  [/quote]

OP here. I am not talking about people who don’t respond. I am talking about people who RSVP yes and then I pay for their kid and they don’t show up.

I’m totally fine with people not responding or RSVPing no. I’m even ok with people texting me at the very last minute to say they can’t come. I had a person say they were sick and I let a sibling join. I’m annoyed at the person who just didn’t show up and I am out $50. It is the principle more than the actual cost but the cost is annoying also.[/quote]

Don’t invite them next time. And where are you paying $50/kid? Or are you including the cost of fruit punch, pizza,
and cake? Because you can take all that as leftovers. Individually wrap any cake slices and freeze them.

You also may across as way too intense. Maybe the other parents pick up on that and realize they’re not into it? They shouldn’t RSVP yes and not show, but you seem very, very angry.

You havent hosted a fun bday party have you.  I treated my kid to a climbing party and it was $60 a kid with no food.  I also had a race car party that was $50/kid for them to have 3 or 4 races.[/quote]
