I have to change it right?

DD decided she doesn't want an AIW party after I've worked and planned for months...I have to change it right?

If you have spent money and time towards putting this AIW (what exactly is AIW?) party together I would just tell your DD that it's too late to change her mind.

Alice in wonderland. Right?

Oh man! That stinks! What does she want now? Something close to that? Or complete opposite of the spectrum?

How far away is the party? Maybe she'll change her mind back in time for it? Maybe if you have her help out with making some stuff AIW themed she'll get back into it?

What does she want instead? If it was something completely different, I'd say sorry but we have to go with what we originally started working on or she can have just a generic birthday theme with simple decorations/food.

If she wanted to do something in the same vein, I'd try to help come up with ways to adapt what we've already done into that theme. Like storybook or disney or something?

That stinks. Can you convince her to have the other type of party next year?

LoriLee14 · April 2014

I say if you have spent money on it, then it is too late to change this year

I bought her a costume for the party, but she said she's willing to be Alice for Halloween. She wants a luau and a water slide. Super easy to do and more fun she says. Ha!

We only have "big" parties every other year.

She was supposed to sleep on it and we're going to talk tonight.

How much have ypu actually put into it? Like just a ton of planning on paper or have you ordered a ton of crap that cant be returned, and pulled all nighters making decorations?
If it wasn't that much work that you have put into it I would provably switch it.

If all you've bought is the costume I'd tell her she can change it but once you change themes you're not changing again

bumpuser924057 · April 2014

Totally depends on how much you've actually done/spent. Ditto PP, any more than the costume and I'd say no, but if the rest is just ideas that have been pinned and no actual money laid out or time invested in DIY, then sure.
