[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So your daughter excluded the other girl from her party because she talked about poop and farts, and yet she then attended her birthday party?? Wasn't she worried about excessive poop and fart talk there, or is it ok to hang with someone who talks like that if it's someone else's party? Ay![/quote]

[b]My daughter had five other people she rather would have at her party than someone who talks about poop and farts all the time, yes. [/b]
As for her reasoning about going to the other girl's party, who knows how a 7 yo's mind works. It was a different atmosphere, maybe she didn't think it would be such a big deal at Chuck E. Cheese or something. In her head, excessive potty talk would have been out of place at her own gathering.

NP here. I'm sorry, but you are just defensively rationalizing things.  We both know that this girl doesn't talk non-stop about poop.  You keep saying that - thinking this is a completely great reason to exclude this poor girl after she had invited (and you accepted!) an invitation to her birthday party the same weekend, but we all keep telling you it was wrong.  I don't think anybody should ever call little kids "bitches", but you do realize that you are inviting this talk b/c the rationale behind excluding this kid is really really poor.

I think you should honestly step back and think about how arbitrary this is for 7 year olds.  What if one of the girls your DD had invited to her party - the very next weekend - had a party and didn't invite your DD b/c she was bossy, or talked too much, or something arbitrary and stupid like that.  How would that make you and your DD feel?

Think about it...[/quote]
