[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will never understand why people who hire babysitters so they can go on date nights and out their kids on day care all week get bent out of shape because they can't take their kids along to a wedding for a few hours. Hire a friggin baby sitter. It's not a big deal.[/quote]

I don’t like using a babysitter I don’t know, for my kids in an unfamiliar place to them - in a hotel. [/quote]

+ 1000 I am not a helicopter mom but some people seem to think of kids as dogs: just get someone to watch over them! Hum, no? My 4 year old daughter is going to throw a massive crying tantrum if she is left alone in an unfamiliar place with someone she has never seen and that I will take max an hour to introduce (best case scenario). And I fully understand her, it is scary and should be scary to her.

I was invited once to a wedding that said no kids, we didn't realize until we landed, Thats when the hosts pointed out to us that we misunderstood. My DH went and I stayed at the hotel with the kids and had the babysitter only for after the children fell asleep (they met her before falling asleep though). I arrived at the wedding for the dance party. And the hosts (the parents) dared to make a comment, with a fake / feign concerned "oh FINALLY you could make it" as if I was a super late guest who couldn't ditch her snowflakes..

Had I known we wouldn't have gone at all[/quote]

Sounds like you learned a lesson about how to read an invitation.[/quote]
