[quote=Anonymous]A couple kids got cut from my kids ‘A’ team this year, and it sucks because they were really nice kids and nice families. You spend so much time together on the sidelines and the kids and families are a part of your life with carpools, trips, etc. I had the experience a few years back of my kid not getting asked to be on a special one-off team and the other parents avoided us and lied about where they were going when plans conflicted. I know they were doing it because they didn’t want to hurt my kids’ feelings or ours as parents for that matter, but at the time it really stung because we were all already feeling bummed not to be a part of things. So, I know it can hurt feelings not only of the kid but of the parent. I don’t want to inadvertently do this to someone else. What is the best way to proceed? I don’t want to avoid these friends because I like them, but we were friends by circumstance and now the circumstances have changed. [/quote]
