[quote=Anonymous]I have traditionally been the first to cry outrage when kids are excluded from parties. However, this year as my kids rise in elementary school it's more and more difficult to deal with kids who are out of bounds all the time. Both my kids (I have twins who are now in second grade) have kids in their classes who hit, kick, swear at the teacher, tell sports coaches "make me!" when asked to do things, etc. And this is in upper NW DC. These are kids from "good families". I assume that some of these behaviors arise out of special needs. In some cases the parents are very involved and in others they are not. I am guilty of excluding these kids from my kids' parties. I excluded the second grader who taught my kid the word "bitch". I excluded another child who defies me every single time I've had the kid over to my house. He has told me repeatedly "no, I don't have to listen to you". If your child is being repeatedly excluded, perhaps its time to take a long, hard look at their behavior. [/quote]
