Manners 101: Ask first before inviting yourself or others

by Dad on March 1, 2010

Hey Sebastian. Tonight your grandparents (my parents) came over for a visit, bringing along their close friends who had a gift for your mother. It was a nice visit and we’re always happy to see them, but there was one slight problem; they didn’t ask us before inviting themselves and their friends over to the house.

Vanessa was not feeling well and did not want to have any visitors, so she was put into a tough spot.

No big deal in the grand scheme of things, especially since my parents have been so helpful in the days since you were born, but just keep this in mind as you grow up. Always ask before inviting yourself to someone’s place, especially if you’re inviting other people to come along with you.
