[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My siblings get together all the time without me and I have never even thought to be offended. The more people who invite the harder it is to schedule, to meet everyone's needs, and the more work and clean up it is. It is also more kids and some kids get along better than others.

I also invite one of my siblings over and not the other. I can't imagine feeling that I can never see one without seeing all of them.

Would you also feel if you invited one set of parents, you wold also have to invite the other set?

That all is just strange to me. we do things with just some family all the time. It would be nightmare to plan everything with every family member every time and would probably mean we would rarely get together.

Thankfully my siblings and parents seem to be on the same page. It has never even come up but I can't imagine them being hurt that we all see each other without everyone present.[/quote]

But then do you (or your guest siblings) invite themselves over to the non-invited siblings house after the party/dinner?[/quote]

Shrug. OP can say no. Either you want to see people, or you don't want to see people.

Oh, wait...but with you people, it's not about that. It's about bean-counting and entitlement.[/quote]
