don’t bring their kids to a party...
One of my sister’s girlfriends hosted a party for adults only.
A guest showed up with her little kids in tow, let them run wild, and proceeded to get plastered. She expected everyone else to watch her darlings. The hostess did not have children or a kid friendly house, so there was nothing to entertain them. The mother plunked them at a table with copier paper and the pen cup from the hostess’ computer desk and told them to draw.
Her children decided to go into the hostess’ bedroom and draw with marker all over the brand new bedroom furniture, comforter, and walls with markers they found in the pen cup. That destruction mission accomplished, they went into a guest bedroom, started throwing decorative pillows around, and busted an heirloom vase. The resounding crash caused several adults to perk up and find out what happened.
Their father had to leave work to retrieve his kids and sloshed wife. The damage was several thousand dollars.
They were never invited over again.
You may love your children, but not everyone else does. If I brought my babies anywhere, I hovered over them the entire time and made sure they had things to amuse themselves. If I couldn’t find a sitter, I graciously declined.
Some people were raised in a barn and the animals had better manners.
I was looking up creepy Biden pictures for the caption “in party babysitting will be provided by Sniffo the Clown”.
“Dont bring your f***ing brats”
I go to an Indian resturant where the owner forbids kids in his resturant. He HATES kids and refuses to cook for them. Ive seen him tell a seated family to take their kids to McDonalds, theyll be happier there and understand the food selections.
I freaking love that resturant.
His place is so nice and the food is outstanding.
He told me some fat slob family came in wanting a high cheer. The brat slipped out and fell and they wanted to sue. So he has a huge sign out front...NO KIDS UNDER 12.
Parents raising kids declines from boomers down and we were bad enough
It’s precipitous after gen x
I mean very few discipline for shit
Helicopter moms and let them run the house
Even let kids hit them
You are welcome to bring your under-age children along to this affair! We will have a special, separate, sound-proofed room, just for them, where your Little Ones won't be bothered by the adults' foul-mouthed language, drunken rants, lewd double-entendres, clumsy pick-up lines, wardrobe malfunctions, etc.
Child-care services provided by Nurse Ratched, under whose iron-fisted rule your Little Ones can laugh and play - as long as they don't unnerve Nurse Ratched, who is known to have a hair-trigger temper and will not brook any back-sass.
Regards,
Same with dogs in restaurants.
I don't even like people. Probably why I never get invited to parties.
People believe they are talking about everyone else’s kids.
Sadly, regardless of how the invites and discussion are made, there are ‘parents’ who have no boundaries with their kids and will be insulted their children are not invited.
Put on the invite Adults only.
“How about saying ‘No kids’?”
Because parents worship their little angels now. I started to notice this in the early ‘80s when my co-workers were starting families.
If a two-year-old interrupted an adult conversation, everything came to a standstill, and the adults were forced to listen to Dearie expound.
Wherever Mom and Dad went, Dearie was getting and center.
When we were kids, Good help is it we interrupted an adult conversation.!
“I don’t like kids.”
I don’t like or dislike kids. I do think they’re super interesting (the things they say and how they think) but I never wanted one. My sister’s grandchildren are fun. My invisible children and grandchildren are perfect, of course. 😌
The dogs I’ve seen in restaurants are better behaved than the kids.
Whatever you do...don’t mention that there will be a drag show at your party. Invitees will most certainly be upset that they can’t bring their kids.
sniffing party
There is no reason you can’t just let everyone know it is only adults.
Oh how fast that changes once the booze and weed is in.
Oh yes, it was not a lie. I really did have a missing pistol that I found a month later.
