[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not assumed that the parent will attend. Families of guests often coordinate carpool situations to get the kids to the service and then to the party. [/quote]

So what happens if none of DS's friends are attending with their parents?  Are parents expected to just sit in their cars outside the service and then outside the reception until someone gives the signal that things are wrapping up?  There are no start or end times listed for the reception.  [/quote]

Either arrange car pool, or drop your kid off, come back an hour and a half later and drive them to the reception. You are not invited if you are not in the invitation.[/quote]

This is very weird.  OP doesn’t have the guest list.  More to the point, she doesn’t know which kids have parents also going that could potentially drive.  Is she supposed to cold call parents she doesn’t know to see if they can take her kid after the service? Or is her kid supposed to just ask strangers there to drive him.

As the host, if you are inviting unattended minors to a two-part/location party, it is your responsibility to transportation or facilitate a carpool [/quote]
