Daughter had a party yesterday. 10 spaces and everyone who was invited, turned up.
A parent turns up with two additional children - neither child is their child, parent is looking after them which is fine. I'm aware lots of children wouldn't be able to attend unless their siblings were able to come along. Didn't ask if it was okay to bring them along however it didn't particularly matter as it was a public place.
Now the part which I'm not sure is unreasonable or not is...
The parent then asked "if I had any spaces left because surely not everyone has turned up!".
If there was space, I would've offered them anyway as there is no point in wasting money but is it cheeky to just ask and assume people haven't turned up? They were also late and the last ones to arrive. They were a bit put out when I had said unfortunately there were no spaces left and if they wanted to participate, it would need to be paid for. I had never met the children either and my daughter didn't know them. Personally, I would have just paid for any additional children or waited for the host to offer up any spare spaces.
On top of that, the parent served food to the two children from the party without checking if it was okay. Thankfully there was plenty to go around and I wouldn't want children to go hungry (I had ordered additional so the adults could have a bite to eat too). Finally, their child was rude to me because I said they were unable to go back onto the play equipment as the session was over.
