Here are some friends with simlar question as we.And I have this question for many days,anyone help us?
Kitty said: Yes.We will be celebrating my toddlers birthdays in June. Should we do it 3 hours ne-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(We will be celebrating my toddlers birthdays in June. Should we do it 3 hours ne),it will help you,my kids.
I feel a tremendous amount of pressure to have my kids party at my mom and dad's house because the rest of our family lives near them. If we have it at our house the chances of all the family comming over are slim. I feel that since its their party they should be comfortable and happy to run around wherever they want, yet at my parents they always get into things and it's hard for me to relax. Not to mention we always have to visit them. My imediate family has visited once but only because I had premature babies. And since then we have moved into a great house that I'm proud of and none of the family has seen. Should I just suck it up and have the party at one of the family members house or put my foot down and celebrate at ours?
Answers:

YOu should do the celebration in your house because its your kid's party and you are shelling out the money. If it was your parents who will be paying for the party, then you have to do compromise and let them have it at your parents.
I think the family is just jealous...I have that type of family too! I would just have the party at your mom's at least they will make a mess at her house rather than your beautiful house!
This may be the last year or so that it is really your choice. By four or five kids want to invite their freidns more than their familiy. My ideas would be to either find a neutral place half way between, like a resteraunt, park etc. Since it's in June, a park with a playground could be AWESOME! Otherwise humor the family one last time, and next year let the child help plan where the party is and whom to invite. When my daughter was three, we had it at home with family and friends. This year she wanted to invite her preschool buddies, so we had it and the Mcdonald's PlayPlace. Best idea I ever had. They set up and clean up, you and the kids enjoy and play. VERY little stress!!!

Oh my. Been there, done that.
it is time for you to relax and enjoy the party at your house, which is where your son is most comfortable anyay. Now is a good time to start setting limits. if someone gets mad, they'll get over it.
Don't let other peole run your family, because they will NEVER willingly give up the control.
I also understand not being able to relax when the folks are around. Go easy on yourself here, because you aren't alone with this issue. Just keep telling youtrself that the party will be over soon, and everyone can go on their merry way.
If people see that you are confident and strong in your decision, then they'll come around to your way of thinknig, and if they don't, let them stay home.
maybe your family could have a party at a later date for your children? maybe take them for a weekend in the summer?
You'll be happy once you make the change and get some control back. I promise.
Don't go!
Kindly explain it to them and tell them the truth. Fluffing it up will only make you have to do the same thing next year.
Take a firm stand and don't waiver.
As in the rest of your daily life you must do what is best for your toddlers.
Don't let guilt make your decision. If you feel more comfortable having the party at your home then by all means do so. You can try to explain to your family that because of the mess and having to transport things and babies back and forth you would feel more comfortable having the party at your house.
If they don't come, it's their loss! Invite friends that live close and surround yourself with people that will make the day special!
i say you should take them to see the familt because i am sure the family misses them
I think you should do it with familly. Then you can have an private birthday party for your Todler. Everyone loves extra presents!
I'd ask my parents if they would travel to celebrate their grandchild's birthday. If they're unsure and don't sound convincing that they want to go then, never mind their decision. As long as you make it (1) more of the best birthdays of your child's life. I'm sure your child will "try" (toddler) to understand why G-ma&G-pa are'nt there. If not you could do it in the same town or comunity where your family is. Like a pizza place, park, town hall, or maybe at Mc Donnalds where they have a play area.
Just remember, it's mainly for your child. Good luck!
Here is an idea - have it at a park half way to the family - that way they do not have to drive the full way and your kids cn stil run around to their hearts delight! It seems the reason your torn is you want the family involved with your kids's life but yet your angry cause they have not made more of an effort. This way the effort will be somewhat mutual.
Most importantly have fun and let the children have fun!!
It is completely not at all acceptable for your family to expect you to not only drag your children to their house but also be responsible for throwing a party.
This is totally your choice. You have to weigh the pros and cons of doing the party either way and then decide. It sounds to me that you would enjoy your children and the party more if you stayed home, which I think is what you should do. Your family should me more than willing to travel a few hours one day out of the year to celebrate the lives of your children! And if they dont, then that is their problem, not yours or your childrens'.

As long as kids are there it should be ok to have it at home. Let the children enjoy themselves they can get up with family on another occassion, and if it is that important to be there, you family will come too.
Your party, your babies, YOUR HOUSE.
have it your house and that is the end of this story. good luck, your family should be more considerate. it is okay for you and your family to drive the distance for all of their functions but they are put out when you have a few functions for them to drive to. many families have this situation, STICK BY YOUR GUNS. if some don't attend remember when they have some kind of function in the future.
ssssssss
Do the party where you feel comfortable. It's not about what other family wants it's about what is good for you. Although some times you got to train the other family to be on your rules. It goes both ways,It might be cool to have it at your family's house. It just depends on you. Don't let them make you stress, although partys seem to be always stressful when you think about it.
Do it at you′re house so even you can relax a little it is hard sometimes to put you′re foot down but it is better than saying yes to everything and not being happy with it
