Re: Highly Disappointed
I agree. I would be pissed if they didnt even have the courtesy to call.
Most of the B-day's the kids go to are must rsvp. Usually we have them somewere like the pool or park. Where it hard for the kids to keep track of how many people came. We do this mainly to keep expenses down and so we dont have a trashed house after its over. I would be tempted to guilt trip the hell out of them and then make them believe I was giving away a plasma tv or something as a door prize.
I wish I could say or do something that would make you feel better. If I had been there we would come even if I had to tromped through 10' of snow to get there.

Re: Highly Disappointed
That stinks. I assume it wasnt relatives?
We are lucky that there is a core group of neighbors around us all with the same age kids, so everyone is pretty much obligated to go to everyone else's.

Re: Highly Disappointed
Ugh I would be so frustrated, mad, and annoyed. It seems that when my sons were younger a few years ago, parents had more courtesy when it came to RSVPing or alerting a host of any change in plans. I think more and more people have become more casual or selfish.
