[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don't feel comfortable, decline the invitation.  Don't create a whole issue around you picking your DD up early and interrupting the party.  The party is a sleepover - take it or leave it.  Nothing wrong with leaving it.  Decline the invitation and stop the drama.[/quote]

I say just ask the host when the activities end (pizza at 8, movie over at 9:30, whatever) and pick up at a reasonable time.  You won't be "interrupting" anything.  [/quote]

Oh yes, a hostess always loves to break down the evenings activities so that her guests can pick and choose what they would/would not like to participate in.  How would you feel if the next time you host a dinner party, your guests call and ask what you are serving for a main course, dessert, etc. and tell you how early they'd like to leave your party based upon your answers.

By doing this, you are teaching your daughter very bad manners.  A guest either accepts or rejects an invitation.  To do otherwise is rude.[/quote]

Hostess?  Comparing a sleepover to a dinner party?  What are you trying out for the next cycle of Real Housewives?  Just find out when the girls plan to get into PJs and pick your kid up then.  It's not a big deal.  Happens all the time.  [/quote]
