[quote=Anonymous][quote]Another working mom here. I wish I could say it doesn't happen to working moms too, but earlier thsi year there were not one but two occasions where other kids got bday party invites in theri cubbies at daycare and DD got none. It was the same type of situation where I, like the OP, racked and racked my brain for a reason. Another mom had pulled her kid's invite out of the cubby and said something like, "Oh, look, an invitation to so-and-so's party!" and I reached my hand into DD's cubby and there was nothing there so I sort of joked, "Oh well, maybe ours got lost in the mail," but the other mom looked mortified and I did not say anything else. I really do not know why, I really don't. DD has since moved up to another class but the other kids will soon follow so I don't know if this situation will repeat itself or not. I always thought you don't give out invitations through the class unless you are inviting everyone, but, apparently, there are those who do not follow this rule. Shrug. So, anyway, this is all to say, sadly, I don't think this type of "high school"-ishness is just linked to SAHMs vs WOHMs, etc etc etc. Sigh. [/quote] They definitely should not have put the invites in the cubbies, that was wrong. We inivite the entire daycare class, but if we didn't, it wouldn't be because of any issues with the mothers of the kids that were not invited. DS has certain kids that are his "best friends" and if we wanted to have a smaller party, we would let him pick which friends he wanted to come. We would never exclude just one or two kids, but considered inviting only 4 or 5 of his closest friends to his most recent party for cost concern reasons and because we have a small house.[/quote]
