[quote=Anonymous]My dd was invited to a no siblings party so we did something else with sibling ds during the party. I noticed that one of the kids had her mother, her nanny and her grandmother at the party - and no, they weren't close friends with the host. When I threw dd a bday party at Bowlmor, one of the parents asked if her husband could come. I had never met him and basically answered - no, let's keep this party focused on Larla's day. What I didn't say was, this is not your family's bowling excursion day on my tab. When there is a cost per head, I think it is asking a lot of the host to take on strangers. When it's a party at home, or there is no cost per head, I think opening the party to siblings, especially if they are small kids, is a really nice thing to do. So .. the "no siblings" phrase probably ought to be expanded to "Larla's friend + parent". There really isn't any reason for 3 adults to be in tow with a single child.[/quote]
