[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see no children as nobody under 12. If the brewery was actually the issue she should've said no minors. But children is a specific word usually used to refer to the 12 and under set. So I understand OP's uncertainty.

Adults only would be only people over 18. She should've used this if that was her prerogative. I wonder if people who had toddlers received different invitations with the wording on it? Not everyone will look online. Really comes down to what the formal invite said on the envelope. I would decline now due to not previously understanding kids can't come.[/quote]

There’s no “uncertainty” if the children’s names weren’t specifically on the outer envelope or the inner envelope. There’s no “confusion.” There’s no “interpretation” to make.[/quote]

WELL OBVIOUSLY THERE IS OR WE WOULDN"T HAVE THIS 150 PAGE THREAD WOULD WE NANCY[/quote]

Oh honey. It’s OK that you are entirely uncultured and lack basic knowledge of etiquette. Do you know how to Google? If so, you can help yourself to basic information on wedding invitations and etiquette. [/quote]

[b]Did you read OP's update? Perhaps you should send a note to the bride and groom and let them know that in fact you already decided OP's kids are not invited and so her clarification that they are is a mistake,[/b] GOOD DAY. I SAID GOOD DAY.[/quote]

Except that they pretty clearly originally weren't, really. Sorry you're getting so upset over the thread though, it's not healthy.[/quote]

Upset! Surely you joke. I just am baffled by DCUM's overreaction to so many things that are easily cleared up with a phone call or a text. I am not upset in the least. Mostly just sad for all the things people are missing out on because they've decided to go nuclear over nothing, when they could have just, like, called their sibling to find out the situation.[/quote]

NP. There’s no need to “clear up” when the people who are invited have their names clearly printed on the invitation. That’s how wedding invitations work. By “clearing up,” you mean to say you want to see if you can hint/manipulate/whine your way into what you want. [/quote]

I really believe you mean this, and I also believe you must have extremely toxic relationships if this is your interpretation of how this conversation would go. Most people who love each other can have this conversation without it being whining, manipulating, or even hinting your way into getting someone to change their mind. I know you won't be able to stop yourself from posting some nasty response to this, and I want you to know that you deserve love too and I hope you are working with someone who can help teach you to trust people and not to immediately burn down every relationship and every situation out of some fear of being vulnerable.[/quote]

Awwwwwww, yeahhhhh, like this “concern” isn’t just more proof that you are, indeed, the pushy and manipulative type. Bye![/quote]

Everyone is out to get you and the only way to stay strong is to avoid having real human interactions. [/quote]
