[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally I would make a bit more effort to connect with the mom. For any number of innocent reasons she may just not have considered inviting you guys. I would mention casually you heard about her get togethers through the grapevine, and your son mentioned it to you, etc... something along those lines.

If she’s really just being stuck up and exclusive, I would just drop it and not look back. You nor your son don’t need people like that in your life. Keep doing what you’re doing to enrich your sons social life without being hung up on what they’re doing. Hope all works out for you.[/quote]

Do not ask about something you were excluded from! That is extremely rude. There is a mom like this at our school. At first she was asking me to hang out all of the time. I could not figure out why. As time went on, I realized that she's just a social climber. I have no interest in being friends with someone like that. I bet that this woman perceives that either you or your kid can't do anything for her. Just let it drop.[/quote]

Social climbing? Don’t be so cynical. Nothing wrong with making an effort to get to know better/socialize with families of her sons friends. If they don’t welcome her and her son. She can simply leave it at that.[/quote]

Her son and the other kid in question have had 8 1:1 playdates. They just aren't that into them. Time to focus on the friends the kid can count on. [/quote]
