[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have read these threads before and there are fundamentally two different kids of people:

-People who think it is polite to reciprocate an invitation 
-People who think invitations come without strings attached, simply because the person enjoys your company and wants to socialize

I tend to side with the latter, since I think the burden is on a host to not take on more than they are willing to take on, and it’s unfair to expect everyone else to have your same priorities in life.[/quote]

Um, seriously?  Other moms do not "enjoy" your kids' company - they are doing this for their kids.  If you don't have any intention of reciprocating, then shame on you.  It is not about you.  It is about the kids.  [/quote]

You don’t get to “shame” someone for not having the same priorities in life as you.  If you want to host a sleepover for your kid, then do it.  If you don’t, then don’t.  If you only want my kid to come to your kid’s sleepover if my kid will then have your kid over for a sleepover, then make that an explicit condition when inviting my kid, and I will decide if my kid getting to have fun with your kid is worth dealing with you twice.
