[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, it happens all the time with my kids.  They will have a big party and then only invite 3-5 for a sleepover.  [b]No one bats an eye because it is so common. [/b] My daughter usually gets invited to the sleepovers (she's not allowed) so she stays until 11 and I pick her up then.  But there have been a couple of occasions when she is friends with the birthday girl, but not one of her best friends so she hasn't been invited to the sleepover.  She's fine with that also.  My son has reached the age we allow sleepovers, so he stays for the ones when he is invited to stay or I pick up after the party when the party is not from one of his best friends.  I think the problem would be when the best friends are a group of 5 and one of them is not invited.  But you as the parent must know why your child's best friends are (and so do all their classmates).[/quote]

Just because it is common doesn't mean there aren't hurt feelings. When did it become so ok to be an asshole?[/quote]

When did it become "everyone is close friends with everyone"? Wait, I know. It came with participation trophies. [/quote]

Then have a party with only the three close friends that will be invited to the sleepover.  Problem solved.

No problem to solve if you don't create a problem out of nothing. We are not raising drama queens.[/quote]
