[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are never going to include you.  Give up and move on.  Yes, she deserves better but this is how people are.  You don't confront the mom.[/quote]

There seems to be a running theme on DCUM that posters kids are entitled to be included in almost everything. I don’t get this mindset. If someone isn’t including you, they don’t want you there. Why would you want to force that?  The best thing to do would be to tell your DC to find new friends. 
Also, OP blames the mom for not including her daughter. I’d be willing to bet there is some amount of direction from the excluding moms kid. [/quote]

At that age, its nice to include all the kids.  I'm assuming you are the parent that OP describes.  We always included everyone, especially at parties.  But, mean people are never going to get it.[/quote]

At age 9 or 10 what do you mean "we always included everyone"?  You exclusively hosted full-class, or full-grade parties?  I'm a nice person and never want someone to feel deliberately excluded, but I'm also a realist and am not going to force my tween to consider everyone an equal friend (or invite everyone to everything).[/quote]
