[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cousins kids not being invited seems rude to me especially when the grandparents are likely attending the wedding too. But I feel like more and more of these weddings are just photo ops for the bride and groom, rather than celebrating family. [/quote]
Oh please - some of us have large families. I have 22 cousins on just one side. Once you add in their spouses or partners and kids, that would have been close to 100 people just there. There should be no blanket statements about who should or should not be invited. It’s all so dependent on the specifics of each wedding. Guests need to stop getting hurt feelings if their kids are not invited. It’s an invite, not a requirement. Just rsvp no if it doesn’t work for you. [/quote]

“Guests need to stop getting hurt feelings if their kids are not invited.”

Why? You get to dictate your own actions, you don’t get to dictate people’s reactions to these actions.

I fully believe people have a right to invite who they want. But when they don’t invite the kids, I am not going to show up and I will be much less inclined to be close to them or bend over for favors in the future. They may not care about that and that’s fair enough.[/quote]

You never attend a social event without your kids?! How bizarre.[/quote]

Not one that I have to fly to and that all of my extended family (ie. potential overnight sitters) is also attending.  [/quote]
