[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parties starting late in 1st and then in 2nd get smaller. 10 kids. Boys and girls both get left out, it happens to everyone. Those 10 kids can include family friends, sports friends, close aged siblings or cousins. Continue all class/all gender parties if that is what you or your DD wants but it doesn't guarantee reciprocal invites. It does help if you are friends with the moms at that age. [/quote] My older kids are now tweens/teens. Over on the tween/teen forum, people often talk about their kid being the left out one. My boys were never the left out ones. I have even responded on those threads that I often only take who I can fit in my car so that means closest 4 friends only. Ugh I feel like my daughter is not the same as my boys. She seems also much more sensitive.[/quote] So you didn't care or feel bad at all until it was your kid. Got it.[/quote] I also said that I made my kids invite all the boys in the class until sixth grade. It didn’t feel right to invite only 10 of the 11 or 12 boys so we invited all of the boys.[/quote] Yes, but as others have said, kids have friends from church, activities, family friends, cousins, etc etc. WAS your DD the ONLY kid or girl in the class not invited, or you're just saying random crap to make it seem hurtful? What grade is your daughter in? So in 6th grade it's fine, but not younger? Thanks for letting us all know. You should have published this somewhere so all the parents could see the rules. [/quote]
