[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think it is nice of you to worry about this at all.  It is a tough situation.

In first grade, my DD was bullied and treated very badly by another child - active exclusion, teasing, name-calling and rock-throwing.  She was the only target of this particular girl.  So yes, PPs, first graders can be bullies.

In those circumstances, does the bullied kid really have to invite the mean kid to her party and be a good host?  Does she have to include someone who is unkind and disrespectful to her on a regular basis?  Does she really have to not invite the other kids because it would hurt the bully's feelings?  What about the bullied kid's feelings?

We did not invite the other girl to DD's bday party because the other child was mean to DD all. the. time.[/quote]

Totally agree! I think the parents suggesting that the bully be invited have never had to deal with their child being bullied or know the lasting affects this has on a child. Not sorry to say this. No bullies at our birthday parties. Yes, I would most definitely invite the entire class if my kids wanted, and exclude the bully. There are absolutely no repercussions for bullying behavior if they get away with it at school AND get invited to all the other social events.[/quote]
