[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am annoyed if the guest list is hidden for a kid birthday party because I want to see who I can carpool with!  [/quote]

I email the host and say, “Jane would love to attend, but I need a carpool. Could you let me know of any other kids in our area who will be attending?” I’ve always rcvd a response. Sometimes the host offers my kid a ride. [/quote]

+1  I've only carpooled if it was urgent.  My spouse travels a lot, and don't see that as an excuse unless DC is really close to the bday child and I have a critical conflict.  Asking others routinely to shoulder our responsibility seems rude to me.  Twice I've said DC would like to come but I can't get there in time for the start or pick up.  In those cases, the host helped work something out (e.g. One Said it was ok to arrive later, another offered to drive (DH was working and I had recent surgery)).  If neither offered a solution, I would've been fine and wouldn't begrudge them.
