[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of these answers make me so sad. So many rude, entitled, self-absorbed people. OP, I hope you are realizing that you and your kid are so much better off not having these people attend.[/quote]

OP here. I don't even care if they don't come. I just want a headcount so I can plan accordingly! That's why I mentioned to one parent at school the other day. She said she may have missed it. Wouldn't you at least go look for it after a parent mentioned it to you???? And it isn't like our kids aren't friends. She always invites us to their parties. I promptly RSVP yes or no.[/quote]

I don't know if this happened with your friend, OP, but it's happened twice to me now with evite so I'll pass it along in case it's a possibility. In the last couple of years, two invitations haven't made it to me, even to spam. Two separate friends, each who copied and pasted my correct email address into the form and said that evite was showing it as delivered but unopened. Each asked a couple days before the party if my dd was going, but they needed to screen shot the invitations to me because I didn't have the evite at all.

Hopefully it's something like that and not your friend being rude. I'm all for the instant RSVP - then it's done! No one's going to think less of you for being excited about going to a party, for goodness sake.[/quote]

This has also happened to a friend of mine. I could see on the evite that her child was invited. We live next door so I thought we could carpool and asked if her kid was attending. She said she hadn't gotten the invitation, checked her spam, checked her trash, and no email anywhere. I showed her my evite and we could see her with her correct email address. The host had no idea what had happened. [/quote]
