[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Things said at these parties: Bday boy: "I love this! Remember when we played this Johnny, at your house". Kid next to me to his mother: Mom, I've never been to John's house. Bday boy: wow, thanks I LOVE it. (Even though he got 3 of the same thing. Bday boy to my son 2 seconds before he opened presents: "Spider-Man is for babies!" And of course my son had picked out a Spider-Man gift for him.. So no, kids don't love watching your kid open gifts. My kids are well mannered and not self absorbed, before someone misjudges.[/quote] They don't have to like it-just like they don't have to attend. But they do have to be gracious, kind enough, and taught that it is NOT about them. Teach your children to celebrate others and respect that people do things differently . How hard is that?[/quote]
