[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree - find something else to do with the sibling. We had an ice skating party where the parents could get discount tix for the public skate if they wanted. A few families took advantage of this and then came to the party room and ate the food (which was enough for the party-goers). As a result, we didn't have enough space for the invited kids and we ran out of food before each kid ate pizza. It wasn't necessarily a matter of cost - the venue limited the number of kids that we could host. [/quote] What does this have to do with anything though? Not one person has said its ok to bring uninvited kids to the party room or to eat the food. No one. But you are really overstepping if you think people shouldn't have gone to the public skate and then picked up their other kid after the party is over. That's what's insanely controlling. The people who are suggesting it's somehow rude for siblings to be entertained in the same building![/quote] Nobody thinks it's rude for the sibling to be entertained in the building IN THEORY. The problem is, what several PP's mentioned is what happens in reality; the siblings work their way into the party anyway and mom host feels guilty and lets them eat because it sounds bitchy to tell a 5 year old he can't have cake. Very few parents who keep the other kids there seem to manage to keep their other kids separate from the party and instead meander in and then sheepishly accept cake and pizza because hey, why not, we are here anyway.
