[quote=Anonymous]I would not give this any more thought. As others have said, kindergartners are not reliable narrators at all. For all you know, the parents said “WE are too busy” and the kid misheard or misinterpreted or preferred to change the story up for whatever reason. Even if the parents DID say that, this isn’t something that would hurt a typical kindergartener’s feelings in the way you seem to think. Just keep asking the girl over to your house when you like, or suggesting meetups at the park or wherever. Throughout your kid’s childhood, you will find that some parents don’t care to host much in their homes- for whatever reason. I avoided hosting for a period of time when my DH was struggling with mental health issues. I did make excuses to my young kids - usually that WE were too busy or because of our renovations (which were indeed occurring- so mot a lie- but wouldn’t have been an issue in terms of hosting a play date either).
