[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, OP. [b]The family should absolutely have invited ALL kids vs leaving out just a few[/b]. That's really crappy of them.

That hasn't happened at my kid's school, but it is frowned upon and because there are a zillion parent events it is agreed upon that no one will do this. Which means, my very shy kid gets invited to every single bar / bat mitzvah ... even for kids he barely knows.

I would find something very special to do with your kid that day.[/quote]

Why should they? It's their midd school event. The entitlement here is staggering. This isn't prek. 
You're also making the assumption that OP has the exact guest list and that shyness is the only trait related to this situation. I feel like so many of the PPs don't have older kids. Yes, the first few times your kid isn't invited can seem like a gut punch if your kid is sad. But you learn to shift expectations, prioritize different relationships, and embrace that you're not going to be included in everything by everyone.  [/quote]
