The parents are now asking for tips for covering the costs for the children's birthday party – and other mothers and fathers are angry

Tips and children's birthday parties are among the most tedious parts of life for many American adults.

But combined these two things? This is a new nightmare.

In a now viral video that was published on Instagram, Baker Victoria Perry explained that the participants of the children's parties will now leave a money characteristic-if you do not bring in at least $ 10, you should not bring your child with you. “

Perry noticed that she “does not feel that personally”, but some of her customers showed her the invitations for her child's birthday parties, and many had one thing in common: to ask for a tip.

“With these invitations, at least three that I have seen so far, there is a small place on the floor, which says 'Tipping is encouraged,', said Perry.

One of the invitations she saw had an explanation for why the parents asked for gratification.

The note was: “Tipping is encouraged. If you plan to bring your child with you and to eat and play it, please send your child with your child with your child so that the tip bucket goes into party costs. “

The baker believed that this question was “not appropriate” – and the people in their comment area agreed.

“Don't throw the party if you can't afford the party,” said one.

“What?!? You bring a gift to the party. This is the jumping point. You organize a party with food and drinks and you bring a gift,” wrote another amazed user.

“AbsoFrigginglut is not,” said another. “There are many inexpensive options that you can choose that are still wonderful for small children. While Covid, when we were not allowed to organize parties, we went to the pool with our daughter and friends and brought hot chocolate and donuts. It cost me $ 20 and she said it was her best party ever. “

“When I bring a tip, we don't bring a gift,” said another.

Someone noticed that the expectations of children's birthday parties were generally exaggerated.

“Types…. I haven't seen that yet, but wow. I think the expectations for children's parties in the USA are just out of the chain. $ 100 air balloons displays, goody bags, catering, cake, etc. like chill, ”they wrote.

This is not the only children's birthday party of the children who were thrown on the parents.

There is a new trend in which parents who organize children's birthday parties not only expect gifts for the birthday child or the girl – they also require party guests to bring gifts for the child's siblings.

Kylie Kelce recently made headlines because she claimed that she was “vehemently against the modern step”.

“Our family knows that nobody else receives a birthday present for Bennett's birthday,” said Kelce. “Everyone gets a special day. When your siblings receive gifts for your birthday, this reduces your birthday. It's not her birthday – it's your birthday.

“I also think that it teaches them to an extent that just because someone gets gifts that they get gifts,” added Kelce. “It feels very participating trophies.”
