[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My elementary aged daughter goes to school with a little girl who is the daughter of a well known alt right media personality. My daughter is having a birthday party (outdoor in case you’re wondering) and wants to invite about a third of the little girls in her class to attend, with the aforementioned child being one of them.

I’m having some serious misgivings about allowing this. [b]There have been indications from other parents that this child is already getting into the racist, nationalist rhetoric that her parent spouts on ai[/b]r and on social media. I haven’t witnessed it but with the way things are in this country and the fact that kids are so impressionable I want nothing to do with this girl or her family. I’m having guilt about excluding a child especially when it’s not her fault that her parent is so vicious, but I want my daughter to grow up knowing that this kind of thing has no place in society and doesn’t get rewarded with an invitation to a birthday party. The girls aren’t even close, for what it’s worth.

Please help me think this through and how i should approach it with my daughter. She’s 8. [/quote]

Are these parents of your DD's other friends?  I think that would be the deciding factor for me, I'd have a conversation with them, and then I'd be having a conversation with my DD.[/quote]
