[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sent out my first evite to a mix of classmates, neighbors and family friends. I made sure children's names were listed. Family friends RSVPd with entire family - 2 adults 2 kids. Now multiple classmates are RSVPing with 2-3 kids.

I am going to go over my headcount of 20. I can probably pay $30 per sibling for a few but I prefer not. This ia drop off optional. These parents are bringing older kids and younger kids.

What can I do? Just take it as a learning lesson?

In the past, I did paper invitations and parents would ask about siblings.[/quote]

J[b]ust try to be understanding.  For single parents, or those whose spouse can't watch the other kid, it's very nice when parents allow siblings.  Parents should be reasonable and expect that some will ask about siblings. If you can acommodate, it's wonderful[/b].  [/quote]

I totally agree. DH often travels for work and I often have to find a babysitter to watch the sibling that is not invited. If I can't find a babysitter, I usually tell the child that's invited to the party that she can't go which is usually very disappointing. [/quote]

How EVER do you manage in life?

My DH travels for work and I seem to have my shit together.  It's a drop off party.  Or, you get a friend to take little Aden and  you stay home with Emma.

It's amazing you are keeping two children alive.[/quote]
