[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]It’s extremely rude [b]in my opinion only[/b] to invite someone (a sibling no less) without their 1 yr old to an out of state wedding.[/quote]

Fixed that for you.  FWIW, I completely disagree with your opinion - and suspect yours will change if you ever host a formal wedding, especially in the evening, that is meant be to an environment for adults.[/quote]

Who cares what you think or how you think I should have expressed myself!!

Airlines allow infants with a full ticket, but they don’t count it you want to keep the 2 and under on your lap.

Those infants are considered an extension of the parent.

Airlines have nothing to do with wedding receptions. When people want a child free wedding it often isn’t about the physical chair, or even the meal. It’s about not wanting the normal noises levels, activity and general dynamic that family events vs adults only events have. [/quote]

That is a reflection of social and medical norms.

The same people not wanting babies at their wedding will find it preposterous when they have infants of their own.

Additionally, in this particular case we’re talking about siblings. You force a very close person to choose between you and their child.

If it were a friend or further relative it’d be different.

It's not a difficult choice. You choose your kid. Then if your sibling squawks you put the ball back into their court to make an exception. If they won't then it's likely because you aren't very close or your kid is especially disruptive, which is why it was "no kids" in the first place.[/quote]
