This is the whole reason I didn't want that old battleaxe involved in the planning of the party.

How incredibly rude!! Ignore after the fact requests for money. The time for that was in the planning stages. It is outrageous for her to suggest you OWE some amount she conjured up. If you weren't part of the planning then you were a GUEST. Too bad if they think you're a bi$*h. Only total rubes would think you owe them for that party.

I'd be ticked also, B!


And you even offered to bring the meat! Thats the thing- you offer and they turned you down so they really shouldn't be asking for anything! Geez.... they wanna have it their way AND expect you to just foot the bills? I don't think so. I like the way you handeld it so far. Pay your part and whatever seems fair. And thats it!

So the next time you go on vacation with your child then you can bill your XMIL for her share huh?
