Am I the only one who thinks kids' birthday parties make zero sense?
I hate to be a party pooper, but I always cringe inside when one of my kids gets an invitation to a party or wants to throw one.
Of course I get celebrating birthdays with family around, a cake, a few balloons and a handful of gifts.
What I don't understand is 25 screaming kids, all the expense put into an elaborate party, the mess that is left over, etc. And does a kid really need 25+ gifts?
The worst part is that everyone can't be invited and someone will feel left out. I just don't think birthday parties are teaching kids the right things.
