I promised my son a birthday party for his 8th. I planned it a month in advance and sent out invitations to his class and the relatives. So far, of the relatives, all of the adults plan to attend PLUS a few are bringing their adult friends/coworkers/etc.
The party was to be at a well-known kids fun-park. We have to pay for each adult AND child. With the relatives we're sure it is the "free food" that is drawing them in. I'm kind of shocked that some went so far as to invite other people who weren't even invited.
I have NO rsvp's from his class, NO relatives are bringing their kids just bringing their buddies/selves. He'll have his siblings but it just isn't the same. I'm afraid he'll be heartbroken. It isn't HIM. It is my fault because I really just don't know anyone...and when mom doesn't know people...this is what happens. With all the additional adults we're looking at a couple hundred MORE dollars than what we planned, too. Maybe just cxl and book a trip somewhere instead?
