I can't believe that yet another parent from dd's preschool has sent out a mass email asking for others to detail their summers so she can schedule her child's birthday party when the most people are in town. I have two summer bdays and we've always scheduled a party and hoped for the best. And guess what - it's always just worked out. People really try to micromanage, don't they? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I can understand (slightly) with the amount of people who leave NY in the summer and the probable cost of the party. [ Reply | More ]

What do you mean she asked others to detail their summers" We have a dc w/ a summer bday, and we usually just send out a message asking people if they expect to be in town on X date; sort of as a save-the-date reminder for them, and for us to get a general sense of how many dc might come because it has an effect on what kind of party we'll plan. I don't think we're micromanaging. [ Reply | More ]

that's not the same as asking 25-50 people to go through their calenders and list when their available. [ Reply | More ]
