[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At our 5 year old's summer playdate-style birthday party almost every parent stayed. However that was probably because of the large pitchers of sangria we prepared them. :)[/quote]

We just had our 6 year old party at non-traditional place and more dad's than mom's came.  We also made it clear we were feeding everyone and went out of our way to make the parents just as comfortable as the kids.  If I know it is not a parent friendly venue and only minimal effort is being made, if they are not good friends with my child, we decline.  We had multiple kids (entire class party plus outside friends) who knew my child but may not have been friends who came.  All the parents seemed to enjoy it.  It was a nice get-together so everyone would become more friendly and it seemed to work.  It only cost us a little more to provide food for everyone (we could have done it cheaper but we had a huge spread to make sure even picky eaters would have something to snack on).   If I came to a party where you made it clear parents were not wanted and only fed/entertained the kids minimally and barely supervised, we would not be accepting any more invitations from your family.
