Two parties in one day - AIBU?

[Trudij123]

Hi - quick question. My DD has been invited to two parties on the same day - she’s friends with both girls, one party is 12-3 the other is half an hour away and 2.00-3.45. It’s for 6 year olds if that helps - the longer one is a nature party at their home, the shorter one a pony party at a local riding school ( max of 12 people, only 10 been invited)

She really can’t decide which one she’d rather go to - would it be U to try and go to both? It sort of feels quite rude to go to one for an hour and a half only - but I know others have said that’s what they are doing, so now I’m not so sure if it is?

We had this two years ago as well, I bottled it and took DD to the zoo instead.

I’m hopeless at party etiquette - what do I do?!

I’d do both, not sure how that’s rude.

Because the times overlap.

@FunMcCool Because it’s rude to turn up halfway through a party or leave halfway through.

We had this. DS invited lots of children to his party and then several of the girls said they were no longer coming because they were going to a party of a girl from the class with the same birthday. I thought that was RUUUDE

That is rude.

likely outcome is obvious, wait until your dd figures out which of her friends are invited where & then she can decide.
