DD birthday us comming up and wants a big party 40 kids in a local nightclub that does early parties for teens. Nice place, do food, disco, no alcohol. Quite expensive.
However last night DD was invited to her friends leaving party, local centre with disco, party props, food etc.
I was asked to stay amd help the mom, no other parents even came in the building, left any details, or offered to help.
The kids were wild, throwing food, props, running in and out of the building, round the building.
Friends mom was trying to heard sheep, and I told them its either in or home, their choice.
They were either in the toilets, or in the store room, turning lights off, showing off. Not much dancing, and hardly any food ate. Music too loud to chat. Leaving girls mom shouted at her DD about her behaviour, and her DD has moaned it was the worst party ever. Very ungrateful!!
DD has complained to me that her friends were upset with me for telling them to come inside, and stop throwing things. I over heard her facetime chats last night. She is now embarressed because I was there,
I feel angry that I was put in that situation, annoyed at their behaviour and disapppinted that DD is annoyed with me!! And ungrateful!
If I hadnt stayed I would be none the wiser and her party would go ahead.
Having witnessed this I feel this type of party is totally unsuitable. AIBU to cancel this party and just have a few friends to something. Has anyone had a good experience of these parties? Shes 12/13
