[b]At age 6 Larla did not come up with an invitation list alone without going over it with Mom [/b]as she did choose for whatever reason not to invite her entire class and also to invite some others in the other section(s) of first grade she had probably known from kindergarten or other activities.  At most she was given a number of how many could be at he party and she had to make choices.  This also does not mean that Larla will not continue to be thoughtful or have a positive relationship with this young boy.  There are certaily were kids that Mom and Dad knew from earlier years in school or activities of Larla that they wanted to be sure were invited and probably one would see there are many more girls than boys on the evite.   Young children do talk and do not know boundaries as mentioned.   There is no reason to assume that Mom was any more against having X come than Y or Z - not fair to put thoughts into Mom's mind.  It is hard when all are not invited at this age, but that is life.  Leave it as it is and do not put anyone in an awkward position - the parents over having to add in your child for whatever reason or you son who everyone on the Evite in the class would know was not on the original list and hard to say might assume "pushed - meaning You for him to come."  This is not likely to win him other invites, especially if he is not on the top of his game at the party.  Nor to help you build positive relationships in the mainstream for your child if you seem to be wearing "the wounded parent medal."  And I have been there many years past when a daughter was not included - even recently at a mostly family gathering of the girl she does not most with, BUT it is life.[/quote]
I would assume the girl had any input on the list or really knows who is invited. I don't go over the list with my kids. I know who their friends are. And will ask if they have anyone in particular they want to invite. [/quote]
