'I told him to require a $200 deposit from those kids': School forces parent to invite the whole class to his daughter's birthday, he maliciously complies to keep the problem kids away

Organizing a kid's birthday party is no easy feat. You have to cater to the desires of your child while also enforcing limits and boundaries so as to not spoil them. You have to be respectful of your guests' experience while balancing that with the experience of the birthday kid. It's a lot to manage, and not everyone is up to the challenge.

Unfortunately, this meant inviting problematic children that his daughter not only didn't like but who were also actively unfriendly to other kids. Thankfully, the Redditor stepped in to give their coworker an idea that would simultaneously comply with the rules but would also keep those problematic kids away.
