[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer the question in the post title, yes.  It is poor form.  That doesn't mean you'll be kicked out for bringing them, but there has been ample notice given that children are not invited.  If everyone brought their kids it would be absolute chaos.[/quote]

See, the point is NOT everyone will bring their kids so that's a fake scenario. The only people who bring their kids are those who don't have a sitter in regular rotation because they stay at home with their kids.

Poor form?--bitches like the ones on this thread with all their money and fancy jobs just assume everyone has the same options that they have. Well not everyone does.

Had OP indicated that they can't afford a babysitter the responses would probably be more sympathetic.

Agreed.

Our school says there is no childcare b/c they want everyone who can get a babysitter to get a sitter, but there is always childcare for those who can't get one.

OP I have never heard anything on BTSN that if missed would have put me or my child at a disadvantage.  I go b/c it is what you do but missing it is not the end of the world.  
I say show up with both kids.  If there is childcare, you and your husband split up.  If not one of you goes to both and the other takes the kids for a treat.
