[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Not in my family we help out even if you don’t plan perfectly.[/quote] Exactly. Call me nuts, but a wedding weekend is all about the couple. I would do anything in my power to make sure my sister had a good weekend. If if things were planned hastily. Even if it meant I was more stressed and had some cranky children. In fact, I would want my children to learn that they should step up for each other one day. [/quote] Exactly ... my kids help after assemblies with chairs and every Christmas and thanksgiving they make a dish. Families contribute and pitch in.[/quote] OP's kids are 1 and 3. You are really telling me that at age 1 your kid was stacking chairs after assemblies and cooking Christmas dinner? Bride and Groom need to get this handled themselves. They should post on local message board forums, facebook groups, ask friends, etc. and come up with a team of 2-4 high school/college kids that want to earn some money and PAY them to do this. I have teenage sons and they do things like this frequently.[/quote] They started at 5... progressively doing more starting with cheese and crackers ... moving on to mashed potatoes and green beans. But we are family and we help each other out so most likely there would a 12 year old cousin that would play with my 1 and 3 year old while I helped SIL. [/quote] And OP already stated that they are the only ones with kids so far, so no older cousins. In my family, the 12 year old cousin would be helping to set up the chairs. [/quote]
