Bonus points: My child is grown and out so no longer works as an excuse, but while I was raising her, I progressed so far out of my social circles that nobody ever tries to set anything up with me in the first place, thus negating any further need to cancel!

\ While it is true that people without children might stop involving you, families with children of any age irregardless will continuously try setting up activities in an attempt to have their children busy so they have an excuse, and an oportunity, to drink with other adults.
