[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have your child tell the party kid that he can't come to her party because he didn't get an invitation.

The party kid can communicate this back to the parent and then either give your kid a formal invite or tell him that he cant come because my mom said there are too many kids, or the party is only for girls, etc.[/quote]

This thread has been so interesting for me because on the one hand, if my child was not invited to a party, I cannot imagine saying anything to the birthday child's parent!  I am definitely in the making other fun plans camp.  On the other hand, if I was the parent of the birthday child, I would absolutely want the other parent to reach out to me and I would figure SOMETHING out to include the other child.  So basically this is a tough situation with no good answer, except maybe the one proposed above.  I will say my child recently did not recieve an invite for a party I had heard about, so I made a play date for him that day with a non-school friend.  Two days before, the birthday child's mother reached out to me because we hadn't RSVPed - turned out it really was an oversight.  I had to decline because we had already made other plans but was very sad because I know my child would have strongly preferred to go to the party. So it might be worth floating the lack of invite somehow - either through a mutual friend or via your child and the birthday child.  [/quote]
