On Saturday, DS had his 5th birthday party which was pirate themed. Lots of his friends came, it was a really lovely day and there were no major incidents!
I'd bought a few bits and pieces (swords, hats etc.) for any children who had forgotten any, or who just didn't have time to get a costume ready - I have definitely been in that boat before!
DS's friend came about half an hour after the party had started, and by this time there was only a sword left for her to use, and her mum started actually shouting about how left out her DD would feel. Her DD didn't even seem to care, but the mum insisted on her leaving.
Poor DS asked if she could stay if he gave her his pirate hat so she could join in, but they left anyway.
I genuinely don't understand why! Was it such a crime of me to only have a pirate sword left? I wish this was a joke thread, but I'm pretty sure I witnessed a grown woman having a tantrum over a plastic sword.
Should I give her a ring or just leave it?
