[quote=Anonymous]I think an additional issue (because the first issue is people are RUDE) is that now that most children attend childcare, and there is a strong feeling that every child in the class should be invited, that can get to 20 invites. Then add a few family friends' kids, a cousin or two and it's a big, expensive, party. And yet, NOT inviting all 2 or 3 or 4 year olds to a party when you KNOW a child is going to talk about it ad nauseum for a week before and a week after their party is very rude and feels horrible. And, truly, the classmates are friends - some are better friends than others, but we all talk about "my friends at preschool" and teachers talk about "we are all friends here" so... And therefore, my 1 child will get 20 invites, which is a lot. Again - I should STILL RSVP to them - even if it's a NO it's better than a nothing. (and WORSE it to show up without RSVPing yes! I'd never do that, actually.)[/quote]
