[quote=Anonymous]I fee like this is part of the “everybody deserves a trophy” culture that makes me nuts. I have no clue what percentage of kids I’ve invited to my kid’s parties in her entire life. And I have a second kid with profound special needs that is never invited to ANYTHING - I don’t think inclusion means having to invite a cognitive toddler to fifth grade elementary parties. Your kid has to learn they won’t be invited to everything — that is just life. I can also assure you that my neurotypical kid invites lots of friends to her parties that have not invited her to their own parties — even though they happily come to her parties. . She invites who she likes and doesn’t score keep. You also can see why the birthday boy and your kid might not be a good match right now. That may change — they could be best friends by middle school. You have got to let this go and start to teach your kid some resilience about disappointment.[/quote]
