[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think it’s fine to check in with one of the moms about Halloween. This is not an exclusive party, it’s walking around in public. “Hey Jill, we’re trying to figure out Halloween plans. Larla would love to trick or treat with her friends. Do you guys have plans yet?”

Other mom can invite your daughter to join or not.

My experience is that few parents look out for kids besides their own. The primary exception is when they are friends with the other parents. At our school (AAP center in FCPS), the parents, for the most part, aren’t really friends with each other, and the kids have limited social plans.[/quote]

Don’t do this. It’s no more or less awkward than asking someone who you know was invited to a bday party and is going, “Do you have plans Sat.”  The mom will either respond saying she already has plans (which you know) or will ignore til she can talk to her kid about it after school. It purposefully puts the other mom in a very uncomfortable position. Why would you do that?[/quote]
