[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really feel like this "everyone has to be inclusive" is setting our kids up for failure.  DS has been excluded. I've been excluded.  Yeah it hurts but it's part of life and you learn how to build your own community.  DS will never be part of the "popular kids".  But it's ok, he has a small group of close friends and he's happy.

You say your daughter doesn't play with the boy and girl who didn't invite her.  So it makes sense she wouldn't be invited if they were doing small things.   She's young enough where you can still facilitate playdates.  Id start doing that.  Help her build her community at school.  There are other girls who aren't into sports and the like.  [/quote]

My daughter does dance. She does have friends and she was invited to probably 15, 20 if you include my friends’ kids.

It just feels bad if your friends are going and you are not. This is a new feeling for her. After Covid, everyone had parties and it seemed like invited everyone. She also got invited to a few smaller parties last year where they did a manicure or a sleep under. [b]Only 5 girls were invited. [/quote][/b]

and there were likely girls who didn't get invited to the 5 person party whose feelings were hurt. But you didn't focus on that because your kid was one is the chosen ones. [/quote]
