[quote=Anonymous]Food is one reason that I am no longer hosting birthday parties for DC. 1) Food was usually 50% of the cost of an afternoon that also included a structured activity such as skating or a bounce place. Sometimes it was more than 50% of the cost because DC's private school says if one kid in class is given an invite, all must be. 2) DC has food allergies. I was driving myself batty looking for food DC could eat that no other guests were allergic to. Few people ever reciprocated this consideration and I always have to bring a backup snack to the parties DC attends though many allergic guests showed up at our parties with no backup. Now, we send allergen-free cupcakes to school and then do either an outing with 1-2 close friends or a family trip. DC does not miss the parties.[/quote]
