[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I check my email like twice a week generally. But sometimes I have the flu for a month while one DD has walking pneumonia and DH just had knee surgery and the dog is dying and our 7 yr old is basically running the household for us.  So we let a lot slide that month.  Sue us.[/quote]
Twice a week in 2020?  How are you living?  My sister is completely antisocial and never takes her kids to parties; she trashes invites without even looking at them. I accept everything and make them a priority. [/quote]

I have to read enough email at work. I don’t want to read more emails after work. [/quote]

Same. Also, I’m going to be real, the birthday party for the random kid who sits 2 table groups away from my kid is not high on my priority list. [/quote]

I hope that kid's mom feels the same way when you send your child's invitations out.  Seriously, people like you sound so bitchy and cold-hearted.  Kids love having other kids celebrate their birthday, and I don't understand people who don't make an effort to attend.  It's so rude and thoughtless.  But I know you don't care what I think because you're just too cool and you're so busy that this isn't important to you.  I get it.  And no, I've never had an issue with people not attending my kids' parties, but the responses like this on here are just so cold it's sad.[/quote]

It’s a birthday party, calm down[/quote]

Like I said, I get it, you're so much cooler than the rest of us.  Kids have birthdays once a year.  My kids get excited about their birthdays, but maybe that's just them.  They love it when their friends come to their parties.  The fact that you truly don't care at all that your kid's presence makes the birthday kid happy shows how self-centered you are.  I shouldn't be surprised, but that doesn't mean I don't think it's an awful attitude.  [/quote]

Why don’t you just invite your child’s close friends instead of the entire class? Larlo doesn’t need 18 birthday presents anyway.[/quote]
