my issue is the same as yours lulu - what the **** is with the promotion of, let alone allowance for alcohol at a 16th. I understand that some 16yr olds will drink and that some parents allow it but advertising a party in this way doesn't sit comfortably with me
the whole not sharing thing usually has to do with the fact that often there are people in the group that never bring but always want to be "part of the fun" so to speak or that is what I would assume on reading it - and people are sick of the "free loaders"
but as i said the fact that it is there in the first place indicates they plan on drinking and probably not in small quantities and this is my concern and not something i'd be comfortable with either
ETA - It didn't even cross my mind that the parents were trying to control the situation (even if naively) with the no sharing comment - I've obviously known too many "freeloaders" in the past LOL
