Help! My Husband Thinks I’m Going a Step Too Far for Our Cinco de Mayo-Themed Party.

DearPrudie: He thinks it's inappropriate, and I feel it's fun and adorable. Help!

Would you 1-year-old child be satisfied with a party where you ordered from a local Mexican restaurant because the food is good but the decorations were simply “A child has turned 1”-themed? See if she’ll go for that. Because the way you’re framing it now, it seems clear that you know that this party isn’t something that meaningfully engages with a culture or heritage but rather just cherry picks parts that seem fun and adorable as party decor.

Please explain to your child that “Mexican” is not the same asor a unicorn. A culture is not a costume. Hopefully it’s not too late to get a refund on the General Zaragoza cake.We have three kids and a strict rule on birthdays. The kids get needed items and $200 for the party or a big gift. We want to teach our kids the value of money and how to budget. So the kids can get a sleepover or blow-out water park trip.
