[quote=Anonymous]Just tell her it's okay to feel terrible about it even though it was just a mistake, because it's okay to feel bad about hurting someone's feelings even if it was an accident. Mentor her through apologizing to the non-invited girl and the party girl in an honest and thoughtful way (maybe a note if she's really upset so she can write down and edit). Talk through a) how to avoid talking about invitation events and b) prepare a few phrases for what to say if you accidentally do it again (e.g. instead of "I'm sure you'll be invited," she could plan to say "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned a party that I'm not hosting. I don't know what her plans are.") And make sure she knows that everyone makes a faux pas sometimes and she just has to be as honest and kind to everyone involved as she can (including herself!) and soldier through it. Next time she'll know better.[/quote]
