Re: Birthday party haters

Wow, just wow. People in general are becoming haters of everything lately.
This is spot on. People are just so quick to hate these days. I'm sad for DS when he doesn't get invited to a birthday party. He hates missing out. So I make a huge effort to get to any party we are invited to. Especially with classmates because I don't want him feeling left out when they are talking about it in school.
I have some family members that just hate on everything. They insist that people only invite other people to parties because they just want gifts. Like no, I invite people because we love to celebrate. I would rather people show up with no gift than decline because they don't want (or can't afford) to give a gift. I never throw a party just for gifts, if I did, I'd be screwed cause I always spend way more on the party lol.
They are the reason I don't want to throw parties anymore though. I hate them making me feel like everyone thinks we are gift-grabby.
Yes! I want to know who is throwing their child a party so they can get 15 of the same lego sets. I mean really. We donated almost every toy DD got for her birthday last year (luckily her bday is right before Christmas so we were able to give for the holidays). People are insane.

 Never heard of this, but I'd roll my eyes, put them down as a no and never invite them again!
The best part is one of them is always asking about a play date. So they can have non-family time as long as it isn’t in the context of a party, I guess.
Maybe they are cheap and don't want to have to give a gift.
I'm thinking this as well. I guess it would add up if you have multiple children that are being invited to multiple parties. This is the only other thing I can think of.
