I get it. You have very little bucks and now you have to spend 1500 on a party of all things –this sux for you I hear you. But it’s your kid we talking about.

Knowing how expensive parties are, I am sure the mom is paying just as much, probably more.

You could also see if there are ways to spend the party money wisely so perhaps you will spend less than 1500.

If you were eating only pap and sous everyday then you don't need to pay, But I am confident you are not dirt poor and I know you have a job.

Just be a man and do the right thing – I know you can come up with the money if you really tried.
