[quote=Anonymous] Your heart is in the right place OP, but I think you are over-thinking. Mom of child with HFA here. Just invite him and let the family figure out what they want to do. These places are usually a half hour from us, so unless I know my kid will enjoy it, I don't send. I usually join my kid too if I think there may be an issue. I am also busy on weekends as I assume most families are. I personally don't sit and obsess over why someone invited my child to a birthday party doing something my child doesn't enjoy. It is not my child's party. I am grateful fore the invitation. We then do what works for us. If a mom said something like "I know your kid hates tag, but maybe he could come for cake" I might find it odd. If the party were 5 minutes away, I would probably come upwith that idea myself. If it's far away, my kid is not so desperate to go to birthday parties that I want to spend over an hour in the car for 20 minutes of cake. [/quote]
