DEAR MISS MANNERS: We invited my child’s classmate to join us for a week at a rental place at the beach. He is a huge eater, as large, growing, football-playing middle school boys tend to be. When I dropped him off, neither she nor he said “thank you.” They got in their car and drove away, never mentioning the trip again. I’m feeling reluctant to include him in the future, though I feel bad for this unkindness.
GENTLE READER: Not issuing a future invitation is not an unkindness -- nor is assuming, as they did, that the host will provide for the guest. Though Miss Manners agrees that failing to say “thank you” is a justifiable reason not to extend more invitations.
