[quote=Anonymous]My DS just graduated and it was pretty rough for both of us (him because he was left out of so many and me because I feel bad for him). There were probably 12 parties among his cohort and he was invited to 2 (even though he has know the hosts of the other parties for years). Most of DS' friends were invited to many more parties than he was, and he reports that it sucks to go to a party (the two he was invited to) and just hear everyone going on and on about all the other parties that he was not invited to. In other words, in our area, grad party invites are a notch in your belt and reinforces the social pecking order. My DS is very ready to move on. It also does not help that I am friendly with parents of the kids that did not invite them and have to keep a smile on my face when I see them even though I am pissed at them for not extending kindness.[/quote]
