Tell me I AM right

438Suburbia · October 2011

We are having a halloween party at our house, I told my brother and sister they could not attend because they are not 21. Last night we went out with our good friends they mentioned that they invited his little sister and her bf who are not 21. I didn't say anything last night, but I sent my friend an email this morning telling her that I told my brother and sister they couldn't come and I didn't think it was fair if we allowed anyone else under 21 to come either.

I AM right on this, right!? I mean I feel like we are all adults they should know that's not okay.

I think you are completely right. It definitely wouldn't be fair to your brother if you let others who aren't 21 come.

Unless they are all DDs

You're right. Plus, you don't want to be responsible if anyone were irresponsible and under 21.

I don't see a problem with having people under 21 at your party --- I would just be very firm that if they are not old enough to drink --- they will not be drinking in your house. And if they do, they'll be asked to leave. If you want to avoid the conflict all together, then I agree with you. Ultimately --- if trouble arrives, you're the one that will be held accountable.

That's a no brainer IMO.

Um, its YOUR party, you can invite or not invite anyone you choose!

You're right. Why are they inviting people to your party anyways?

you are right, you do not want to be held responsible if anything bad were to happen

Same here. My brother would not have drank if I asked at that age. He would've been pretty upset to miss a Halloween party. Would you exclude him from another type of party if there was drinking? A wedding?

I agree with this. I drank (a lot) before I was 21, but if I was invited to a party and they specifically said that there would be no under-age drinking then I either followed that rule or I didn't go to the party.
