[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't ask, but that's just me. Would probably tell son he wasn't invited, but don't take it personal. [b]You'll get to a point, too, where you just want your closest friends at your party.[/b] Then I'd make plans for the weekend so he didn't think about it. [/quote]

This is a good line but it only works for kids who have friends.  :cry: [/quote]

I'm so sorry   :(   Maybe you could cultivate friends for him/her?  I would try concentrating my efforts on kids with similar issues (maybe meet parents through support groups), nice families (I'd try the families who invite everyone first), people that you have something obvious in common with (religion, ethnic group, similar career field, etc), kids with similar interests/in same activities.  If there's no clear cut people, I'd try inviting kids that seem nice (maybe ask the teacher for recommendations) and see who sticks (whose parents reciprocate or maybe, whose parents want free babysitting  :? ).  My oldest is socially awkward and I've had to actively help him make friends.  I also roleplay with him to practice what to do in different situations...how to say hi, how to join a group, how to take turns in a conversation, how to make eye contact.  Many social skills are teachable. Good luck.[/quote]
