Thanks for the insight!
What is it about a family party that precludes the action of hiring a babysitter and leaving the kid home, if the kid is not yet sufficiently learned in the table manners required by the venue?

If you mean, it's a family party where everyone expects you to bring along even the smallest babies, so that everyone can enjoy holding and playing with them, then what precludes you from setting such a party in a venue where noisier kids are acceptable?
