Should i cancel the bachelorette party?

on June 22, 2019 at 10:17 AM Posted in Parties and Events 0 12
So my Bm and I have been planning the bachelorette for awhile since the bridal shower. Now my sister ( moh) says her boyfriend doesn't want to watch the kids so she's bringing them to kings bowling (Its 21+ at 10 PM). As much as I love my nephews but I told her I rather it just be her going but her stupid boyfriend doesn't want to watch the kids alone. So I don't know what to do.

    Just tell your sister that although you’d love it if she made it, it’s not appropriate to bring her children to the place you’re going so you’ll celebrate with her another time.

    It’s ridiculous for someone, even if it is your sister, to be so presumptuous to think that kids should be allowed at a bachelorette party. If I attended a bachelorette where someone brought kids I’d leave. That being said since she’s the one planning it it does put you in a weird position of whether you should cancel or not. I’m not sure what the best option is for you but if my sister were planning my bachelorette she’d hire a sitter for her kids and would never consider bringing them.

    Is her boyfriend the father of the children? If so, why does he even get a choice of whether he is watching them? He’s their dad, do your job! If he is not their father, then tell her to hire a babysitter. Otherwise I’d tell her she doesn’t have to come and another BM can take over the planning. Bringing children to a bachelorette party is not acceptable & quite frankly is rude.

    No, don’t cancel it. Kids shouldn’t be going to places for 21+. Would they even be allow to go in? She could find a sitter or stay with another relative? If she doesn’t have the money for a sitter and you really want her there, you could cheap in to hire a sitter.

    Don't cancel it. Firmly tell your sister her kids are not invited to the bachelorette party - tell her that she will need to get a babysitter for the night or otherwise she can skip it and you will celebrate with her later. She can't bring her kids to your bachelorette party, even if it isn't 21+ until 10pm.

    Exactly! Her bf is the father of their children. My aunt even offered to watch her kids but she didn't want to drive to the suburbs

    I agree but I decided not to cancel. I even told her not to bring them or just stay, we can hang out another time.

    If her bf is the dad, she needs to just tell him he’s in dad duty and that’s all there is to it. He doesn’t get to say “no I don’t want to watch them”. Being a father is a full time job!
    Good luck with this. And I hope you have a blast at your (kid free) bachelorette party!!!!

    If she doesn't want to take the drive to drop her kids off she doesn't need to come. POINT BLANK PERIOD!! This is your night, not hers! She doesn't get a say!
