Im having my son's birthday party, and am astonished by the amount of parents who dont. When you or your kid is invited somewhere, do you?

When it comes to kids, no. If it's an invitation to a wedding, a ceremony, a ball, etc., absolutely. If you don't, you won't find your name on the list to get inside. What I used to do with the kids, who are now grown, was simply write at the bottom of the invitation - give me a call at >>>>> and let me know if your child will attend. That seems to work better than RSVP for the simple reason that a lot of people, believe it or not, have no idea what RSVP means!

Yes. I find it extremely rude when people don't. Sometimes I have a hard time getting an answer even when I ask face to face. Now I just make enough food for the people who gave me a definite "Yes" and if others show up, I politely tell them that I didn't make enough food because I took their lack of response as a way to avoid the awkward "no, I won't be there" reply.

Absolutely. If they request RSVP I makae it a point to do so ASAP.. It's just plain rude and lazy not to. People need to know how many to plan for, especially weddings.
I'm with you, I can't believe how many don't and I end up calling them.

When it is a children's party I always RSVP, either by telephone or in person. But, when its an adult party, not really!

if its a kids birthday party people should--an adults party, not so much.
In today's world people are really busy and sometimes it just slips their mind to call. It doesn't mean they aren't coming--the just forgot to RSVP.

I do out of respect for the parents. I know a lot of work goes into these things. I hope you get your responses in time.
