[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I've never been to a party where food and cake is only provided for the children. If you're having a party over lunch time or dinner time, you absolutely have to provide food for everyone. It would be incredibly rude not to.[/quote] + 1 I think it is a SES and culture thing. I have also only gone to parties where lunch or dinner is provided for everyone and parents and siblings are welcome and included in the invite. However, all of the parties were in highly educated, diverse, cosmopolitan and DCUM middle class households. But, enough people post on DCUM saying that they only provide cake for the kids, or they won't provide for parents and siblings etc. or they pick odd birthday party timing so that they do not have to provide a meal - so I am guessing they are either lower SES or generally socialized differently. Must be from outside of DMV?[/quote]
