[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]11 YO DD is having a bday party next weekend with 9 girls. Today she asked if 3 could sleepover. I'm thinking it's rude to only invite a subset to stay overnight. DD doesn't agree and says that the girls staying overnight won't say anything and will keep it to themselves. She nor I want all of them to stay over. What do you think?  [/quote]

VERY RUDE.  This happened to my DD and she was very hurt when she realized that there was an "A" party and a "B" party.  The A party people got the regular birthday plus sleepover.  Everyone knew this when the parents picked up our "B" list DDs.    I know it is easy to have it all on the same day but, please don't. If you had asked before you invited the nine I would have suggested just inviting the 4 you want to sleep over.  But, since that ship has sailed I would do the sleep over on another date.  Don't let you DD be the mean girl and exclude her friends. ( unless the only reason she is inviting them is to get presents)  If that is the case it may be a lost cause and you have raised a mean girl.

If you want to turn the ship around than do the right thing and do not have two separate parties.  The other girls will find out and will be hurt.  How would you DD like it if her friend did that to her?  That's how I would approach it.

Good luck![/quote]
