[quote=Anonymous]The party-giving parents aren't actually giving to charity, they're demanding that other people do so. That's offensive; it implies that you don't give enough to charity already, or that you don't know how to choose the recipients. I think the poster who made a donation in the birthday child's name found the best compromise, but I'd be inclined to discourage any further interaction. Not only is it tacky, but it cheats the charities of 15% of the donation. Then you'd have to look at the non-profit's administration and fundraising expenses to see just how little is left for the end recipients.[/quote]
