Bday party exclusion - Page 2  

post #21 of 26
Maybe you can send Q's mother an email that says you regret that your dd doesn't feel comfortable inviting Q to her party. You hope their relationship continues to improve so that your dd will feel more confident about spending time with her in the future.

No, that was not the OP posting, but funkygranolamama saying that they had a similar kind of girl who was invited to her child's party, and everything went okay. (Glad to hear it!) Actually, my d has a former nextdoor neighbor friend (they grew up together) who was quite often awful to her, but she would still play with her and they went to each other's parties. We often found that this girl would sulk at d's parties--my theory is that she was unhappy if she wasn't the center of attention--and sometimes refused to be part of the games. So usually she was the only one who was not having fun, as well. Once, however, when my d was turning 4 and was "reading" a Cinderella book she had memorized to her guests (who watched in rapt attention), this neighbor said loudly "This is boring!" Another time, she loudly demanded that my daughter read her birthday cards out loud, though she knew d has dyslexia. My d was so embarrassed and cried about it later on.

That just brought back a memory for me. My little neighbor when I was about 5 had a party and didn't invite me. They had a small pool right outside my window and they were all playing in it. When I asked her why I wasn't invited she said I was too big and there wasn't enough room in the pool. It's a bad feeling.......

Let us know how your party goes, okay?
