[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is a perfect example of lack of empathy. The inability to put yourself in anyone else's situation. To the person who believes that in two parent households, they are most likely both at home every weekend. Maybe in your social circle, however, not in the real world. It may be difficult to imagine what it is like to have to decline every invite because of lack of child care. It is not rude to ask a question, many parents (apparently not on DCUM!) are very straightforward with a response. Again, typical DCUM thread. Get over yourself.[/quote] Of course it's rude to ask to bring an uninvited guest. The way to handle it would be to say, I'm so sorry, but Larlo can't make the party because I don't have childcare for Larla. If the hostess can accommodate siblings or wants them there, then she is free to say, of course you can bring her too. [/quote]
