This. And please don't ask to invite other people to someone else's party. Hang out with that kid another time.

Anything else makes you a wishy washy flake. Don't flake out; it's so rude.

This and you don’t ask the host to invite more people!!

Yes, this! I’m almost angry that OP doesn’t know this. Explains all the rude behavior I see from so many parents and their kids.

But what if the kid insists on a different plan after the first invite was accepted?

Op knows this. You would have to be a moron to not know this. She just wanted to talk about how her son has multiple invites for some reason as if that makes him special.

Meaning you explain to the kid why he is going to the first thing he committed to and not dropping it because something else came along. Kids have to be explicitly taught how to navigate social situations and why we do what we do. They don’t call every shot. This is what is called “parenting.” Hope that helps.

Unless the kid is a teenager, they can’t make their own plans. You tell them you committed to the first invite and that’s what you’re going to.

Oh come on ! You teach your child manners and how to say “I’d love to go but I have already made plans”.

It doesn't hurt to ask if one more kid can tag along (at K age) if they generally get along and the action isn't intimate. They can add one more to run around the neighborhood. I wouldn't do this if the kids aren't friends or a couple years older.
