[quote=Anonymous]Our SN son who is in an inclusion classroom in 1st grade has been talking a lot about his classmate Larla's upcoming birthday party. Larla is an amazingly sweet child who is very warm and caring to my son despite his issues. He says Larla invited him several times and I'm sure she did since he had the date and the venue.

Unfortunately he was actually not invited. Another parent who is a friend checked the Evite and our son was not on the list so there's no chance of a misplaced email or something.

I have been hoping DS would forget about the party but he can read the calendar and knows it's coming up. Plus it's likely Larla will be talking about it at some point in class after she has had the party as she is a very talkative girl.

What should I do? Should I tell him up front that he's not invited and that you don't always get invited to everything? Seems kind of young for that kind of talk and in his mind he was invited by the girl even though the mother did not include him. Should I schedule a trip to go out of town on that weekend so that I can tell him we wouldn't be able to go anyway? He may throw a fit but we could cheer him up by going to visit our in-laws or something like that.
