[quote=Anonymous]I had this happen ten years ago when our kids were young. It used to confuse me, as well. Maybe it's because I'm an older mom, but I think it's an important life lesson for kids to learn that they are not invited to everything, and that their sibling is allowed to have their own friends, and their own events, where they are not included. It's about teaching your child a little bit of humility (how to deal with occasional rejection or non-inclusion), and boundaries, as a future adult. When one of my kids had a birthday party to attend, I dropped them off. Then younger sibling and I went to do something in the meantime. These are important life lessons.[/quote]
