[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sleepovers to me are totally different than birthday parties. Those you should probably stick to the class rules and not exclude a couple kids. But a sleepover is like an extended play date, these kids are around eachother in someone else's home for 12+ hours. In that situation it really only usually involves the close friends, not everyone in class. I would tell mg daughter that these friends had a sleepover and one day she can have one too but I would not be sad she wasn't invited or encourage any self pity over it. She's at the age you need to be guiding her toward forming  her own friend group as the days of "everyone's included" are quickly coming to an end. [/quote]
Agree. Kids by age 8, don't usually invite the whole class like in kindergarten. Most homes cannot accommdate that many kids for sleepover. Also, it might be difficult for parents to allow kids go to sleepovers when they don't know the host parent well or not even had playdate previously. It's puts them on the spot. Sleepovers are best for a small group of friends.
