DS is 4, just started reception.
Isn't particularly sociable, but talks about other children. prefers to make models and play trains than be sociable. but the teachers say he does interact with the other children.
he's been invited to a birthday party of a boy in his class. he says he doesn't like the boy as he said something nasty about one of his models and he doesn't like the idea of the party (sport). he said straight away hedoesn't want to go.
often he is a bit reluctant to try new things - needed to visit the place where fireworks night would be for example, beforehand, to prepare him for going. i find him a bit aspergery, but he is probably just 4. should i accept the invite and tell him he's going and convince him in the meantime and risk a scene in front of other mums / children or just say no?
