[quote=Anonymous]So many people too excited to call you names and not even acknowledge that three sets of parents in this scenario were just so rude!!! What is the world coming to.

Yes they all may have had something going on (…such as getting their sons together separately!!!! Hello!!!), but that doesn’t invalidate your feelings. Don’t give the rude parents a taste of their own medicine or whatever you said, you just do you and act according to the example you would like to set for your son if he knew about all this. You know the rude parents will never notice, or won’t care since they’re obviously easygoing about RSVPing themselves. RSVP, get your kid there and back within the appointed times, get an appropriate present but no overspending, don’t let your kid be fawning or ridiculous about his friendship. But also have compassion for your kid, he’s trying to make friends at a new school, don’t make it harder for him with behind the scenes drama coming from you.

In the meantime, know that it’s perfectly valid to have clocked that other kid’s parents’ rudeness, since it tells you that you might not want to hang out with them too much, since your styles are so different. You don’t need to do them any favors, just be cordial.
