[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You people are way to invested in your children's social life.

I know my mother didn't agonize and chest beat over this shit when I was a kid.

Everyone experiences getting their feelings hurt.  You can't control other people's actions and it's best your child experiences some disappointment in childhood/teens so they aren't hospitalized the first time they do when they flee your protective nest.[/quote]

Is this the best defense you have?  That it is normal to have your feelings hurt?  Why would a grown adult deliberately hurt a child's feelings by excluding them?  If you can't handle that many kids for a sleepover than do not invite the kids over at all.  Are you that desperate for presents?  It is far kinder to not invite them than to do the two party system.  Perhaps a grown up version would be:  Group A and Group B friends are invited to a cool birthday.  Everyone gets to go on the lower level where it is somewhat fun.  However, the real cool party is on level 2 but, only Group A can go up.  Don't worry group A will be very quiet and not talk about it.  Even though you can see the fun stuff on level 2.

Now do you get it?  Or are you telling me that if you thought you were a good friend ( which is what these kids think) and you are not allowed to go to the really good part.  Are  you sure you wouldn't be a tiny bit upset?[/quote]
