[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would never deliberately exclude a child from a party when the rest of the class, gender, etc is invited.

If a child has disruptive behavioral issues, I would talk privately with the parents and ask that one of them stay for the duration of the party.

I understand small parties but I don't understand adults excluding a young child- there's just no excuse. The aunt with the party/American Girl experience-- be assured that those parents were raised by wolves. Awful.

OP- I'm in the camp that suggests planning something fun- even if it's a movie at home with a gentle explanation.

The problem is not all special needs parents, just like other parents are not attentive.  If the parents are, you can make it work.  I was friends with a mom when our kids were is preschool and they regularly came over for a while and her kid would be very destructive and break my kids toys. She would not supervise him and just said to glue or I can replace it, no big deal.  I got tired of stuff being broken. [/quote]

SN with social issues not not necessarily mean poorly behaved.  I am the PP of the child in 1st grade who was not invited to any birthday parties and was told he was by some of the other kids over the year.  (Yet, everyone came to his birthday.) He did not behave poorly from a parent or a teacher perspective.  He had trouble connecting with his peer group and a dynamic developed in the social order where he was at the bottom and it was horrible.   [/quote]
