[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I find amazing after 58 pages of responses is honestly it really doesn’t even matter.  I got married 25 years ago. Heck I can’t even remember what kids or if any where there.  I know my brother brought is kids.  I’m not even sure who was there adult wise anymore. And half of the guests might be dead.  People really need to start to see the big picture again that most of the time all their non sense on who can come and can’t come just doesn’t matter.

It’s just not important in the big picture.

It’s a wedding. The more the merrier. Little
Kids having fun. Makes for a nice celebration really.

But hey you do you and don’t invite families to a new family celebration and see who celebrates you moving forward. [/quote]
If you don't remember who was there period, it doesnt seem to matter to exclude kids either. You won't remember in 25 years (nor will your 12 year old) so who cares?[/quote]

People get very upset about this issue because it is supposed to represent family togetherness and someone joining the family.  Excluding kids from the mix seems small-minded and goes against their values.  Of course it makes people upset.  It's a major change.  Do it if you want (no one said that you couldn't) but you don't get to decide how other people feel so stop trying to make people like the choice you made.  It's not your call.[/quote]

No, it's not. They are mad that it poses a child care problem for them. They can't or won't find someone to watch their kids. It's the same when there is a snow day or any other day off. It's a childcare problem, not faux family values.[/quote]
