[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think I’ve ever attended a bad birthday party, as a kid or as an adult. There’s always something to be happy about, something to enjoy. And I don’t come from a rich family, nor have we been to lavish parties now as a parent. All this to say—op, try not to worry about what could go wrong. Imperfect can be perfect—it’s how people feel. [/quote] Came here to say the same thing. [/quote] +1 Me too. Three teens long past the birthday party stage, and have been more fun that others, sure, but I’ve never attended a “bad” party. That said, I never ever depended on the food at these parties (especially if bringing young kids). I’d make sure to feed the kids a heavy snack beforehand (and sometimes myself too). Just throwing that out there, since food seems to be a big source of handwringing for some people. Most of the time there would be plenty of food- and sometimes even really good food! But if there is some sort of food issue: no big deal. We can just eat after. [/quote]
