[quote=Anonymous]I disagree with so much of this.  By first grade my kids are inviting THEIR FRIENDS.  Never the whole class, never "just the girls/boys".  Whoever their friends are, that's who they invite. Period.  I give them a total number, and they present me with a list. So the idea of inviting the whole class at 7th or 8th grade seems completely ridiculous.

Also, wearing a t-shirt you got at a bar/bat mitzvah is not being a bully.  It's wearing a t-shirt. If a 7th or 8th grader can't recognize "I wasn't invited because she and I aren't friends" then that kid has a victim complex and low self-esteem that should be dealt with by their parents.

My kids invited between 45-65 kids.  They have friends from camp, school, hebrew school, after-school classes, etc.  By 7thy or 8th grade you're changing classes for each subject anyway, so which "class" are you thinking of when you talk about inviting "the whole class"?

This whole thing is ridiculous. Let the kids invite who they want.[/quote]
