[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is your daily reminder that while your kids may be the center of YOUR world, they are not in fact the center of THE world.[/quote]

Also a good daily reminder to brides and grooms that they can invite who they want but they can't force people to attend. [/quote]

And absolutely NO ONE said otherwise.[/quote]

Go back and read all the posts paying special attention to the ones calling parents "co dependent" or mocking them as bestest firstest ever wanting a participation trophy.

People are absolutely trashing the op for considering her baby's needs over her brother's courthouse wedding.[/quote]

She can consider her baby’s needs by simply replying no. But that’s not what happened here. [/quote]

It's always the parents making this a thing. They simply can't decline and leave it at that.

Wrong. OP is being called out for this:

OP: "Obviously it's 100% your right to have a child-free wedding but it [b]just seems very targeted at us[/b]"

It's targeted at OP if the invite read "OP's children are not invited". OP making this more than it is - simply a childfree wedding and dinner - is why OP is getting criticism.

Unless they specifically planned to have the wedding after OP had a baby - to intentionally exclude her - this "targeted" thinking is baseless, a manifestation of her frustration over a child free wedding.

Op is the only guest with kids so by your logic then yes, it is directed at her. [/quote]

No, it's not targeted at her. The post you just read explained why:

"Unless they specifically planned to have the wedding after OP had a baby..."
"It's targeted at OP if the invite read 'OP's children are not invited'".

If a store has a sign that says "no women allowed" it's targeted to woman. It doesn't have to list every woman by name.[/quote]

It’s a party. For all we know it’s at a brewery that doesn’t allow kids.[/quote]

A brewery that doesn’t allow kids?! Point me to one because all of the ones here in Maryland allow kids, and they are frankly turning into unpleasant loud playgrounds with drunk parents who don’t watch their kids. /OT[/quote]
