[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Dont expect cake." Seriously? Are there really parents who wouldn't offer a sibling cake? I don't bring siblings to parties but they are often with me when I come pick up and the birthday parent always offers them a piece of cake. I offer cake to the people who work there. You have to be pretty petty to not offer cake to a little kid.[/quote] Ok so then you've now beluga your sibling to the party and made rhe party host feed him even though she explicitly said not to. And here's why following that request matters; let's say everyone else dutifully left sibs at home. Well now here's you and yours, tagging along, playing, eating cake, essentially party guests and they're all wondering why they bothered making arrangements for their kids if the host was fine allowing siblings. You put your host in an uncomfortable position of looking like some people were allowed to bring siblings and some weren't. And maybe there's cake pops. Only enough for each guest. Or whatever. The point is if they say no siblings it's unbelievably rude to bring a sibling anyway and then be like "well he can just play and what kind of person wouldn't give a kid some birthday cake?" [/quote] Wow there's a lot of assumptions going on in this. These are the facts: 1. It's a public venue, so DH and sib have a right to be there. 2. Host is under absolutely no obligation, or expectation to accommodate DH and sib. (Hell, the host doesn't even have to know!) Everything else is your pessimistic assumption for which I am sorry for whatever experiences you've dealt with you lead you to be so negative. [/quote] Since you have already made up your mind, you get the official "THAT MOM" award.[/quote]
