My DS 5 has said that his best friend at school has handed out invites to his birthday party and he has not been invited. He is upset and says he is going to talk to his friends Mum about it in the playground! I have tried to explain to him that this would very embarassing for me and that unfortunately if this is what his friend wants to do then there is nothing we can do about it. I am not that friendly with the boys mum but the boy has been round to our house a few times to play.
I feel very anxious about the whole situation as I am not great at chatting to the other mums in the play ground. He has been invited to lots of the class partys and seems to be friendly and playful with the other kids.
I expect that it is more to do with who the mum is friendly with and maybe she is arranging something where spaces are limited but I don't know how to deal with any embarassing situations in the play ground and am unsure as to how to explain to DS why he is not invited and why it is embarassing for him to bring the subject up infront of hid mum!
