[QUOTE="donna723, post: 617510, member: 1883"] You're not being petty at all! She's taking your very nice gesture and twisting and manipulating again. Sounds to me like she's trying to turn your offer of a birthday dinner for her in to a birthday party for Evan, on your dime, complete with birthday cake and hopefully gifts! That way, she will have to make no effort at all for her child's birthday. And it sounds like that's what she is leading him to believe it is and she's counting on it that you and the family will come through rather than disappointing the child. Very underhanded and very sneaky. Of course, I am a bit of a troublemaker too. But if it was me, I would make it very clear to her what this dinner was and was not. Then I'd flat out ask her what HER plans were for HER child's birthday that is coming up! [/QUOTE]
