[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you really know for sure that B isn’t invited? Are these girls so sophisticated as to give her a pretend invite and/or talk about plans around her at school and expect her to show up and then shun her? I have taught my kids since they were tiny that they don’t discuss plans that don’t include everyone (in their class/friend group or similar depending on their age) in public and especially at school. Surprised that B is in on these plans if she isn’t actually invited.

As someone who was bullied in MS and now as the parent of a middle school girl, I would probably ask my kid to make her own plans with B and others and avoid the group of mean girls entirely.

Also, how many kids are we talking about? [/quote]

OP here - They aren’t doing all that. The girls aren’t talking about it with B, but I believe B and B’s mom just think no one has started talking about plans yet, not that things are already set up without her. It’s a group of about 10 girls. DD is just part of the invited group. It isn’t nice to not include people but I don’t know that I will ask her not to spend Halloween with her friends for this. Also, she’s not that close to girl B, so it would be weird for her to ask her to do something with just her. They are just in the same circle of friends. If I weren’t friends with B’s mom, I would not be aware of this issue at all, and it likely wouldn’t be on my radar that B isn’t included. [/quote]
