[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD’s friend (girl A) is organizing a Halloween event at her house. She is not including one girl (girl B) in their group.  I am close friends with B’s mom, so while DD is not that close to her, I know that she is planning to spend Halloween with this group. I’m also friends with the mom of girl A who is organizing the event. Should I stay out of this or let A’s mom know? I believe she is just letting her daughter invite on text etc.and I don’t know if she’s even paying attention to who is invited. These are 7th graders, so I also know a pity invite would be awkward. But the girls hang out as a group regularly or have been, so she has always been included.

The kids all do activities together where they will see each other this weekend. I don’t like when kids do this sort of thing, especially when it’s something like Halloween and not some small gathering that’s just for close friends. It also puts me in an awkward place with B’s mom, because my DD is included. If B were her close friend, I would have her do something with her instead, but they’re not that close.

I should just mind my own business, right? It’s only by chance that I know both that Girl B isn’t invited (from my DD) and that she also plans to spend Halloween with this group (from B’s mom).  [/quote]

So much unnecessary drama and hurt feelings--I would say stay out of it, but by not informing girl b's mom, her DD is being set up for humiliation. It's kinder if she has some advance warning. I would not involve myself with girl A's mom on this one. [/quote]
