[quote=Anonymous][quote]I mean, I have boys, so perhaps it is different, but I think you are missing the point. I agree that is totally normal to have friend groups by age 8, and to only invite friends to a sleepover. But neither of my boys would be sufficiently close friends with 7 out of 10 boys in the class to warrant inviting them for a sleepover. Three or four boys tops. So no, you certainly don't need to invite "ALL 12" girls in the class, but it is pretty cruel to invite 10 of them. This is not even close to OPs situation. There are multiple classes in the grade, so it is more like 30 other girls were not invited. Much ado about nothing. No one in a big school invites all of the kids; it just ins't practical. [/quote] It is [u]exactly [/u]the same situation. My boys go to a big public school with about 40 boys in the grade and 10 boys in each of 4 classes. I think it would be unkind to invite 7 of those 10 boys but not 3 others, even if 3 or 4 boys from other classes were invited. You obviously disagree, which is fine, but it is not a different situation at all. [/quote]
