Hello,
Is it polite to say "Don't bother" when a friend offers to bring something for your party?
Thank you,
Nawee |

| Yes, it should be polite to say so, but care should be taken to modulate one's voice here and sound polite. |

| It would be more polite to say "you don't have to" as "don't bother" has negative connotations attached to it. |
