I hate going to kids parties, there is usually nothing for the adults to eat or drink (wrong wrong wrong), you have to spend money on a gift that most likely wont be appreciated as kids have too many toys, a WASTE of money and the planets resources, and they eat into precious weekend time
plus they are either in a soft play (skanky) or in a hall with some WANKER scaring the kids with their loud entertainment
and as for the host, DAYS of stress. food? dairy and fucking gluten? sugar? birthday cake? RSVPs? STRESS
and really, the kids enjoy it but fair few are tearful and overwhelmed
and you have to sit and chat with parents that you dont know, ergo strained chat
so why do people bother? I cant remember the last time I hear of someone that actually enjoyed a kids party.......
