My dd is nearly 8 and over the last year has started being excluded from any parties going on in the class. She is of an age now where she knows exactly what is going on and is coming home in tears when she hears of yet another party she isn't invited to.
One of parents invited 12 girls to their kids party and there are only 14 girls in the class.
My dd had her own party last year and we invited all the girls in the class so nobody was left out.
I know this is all part of life but how to I explain to her time and time again why she isn't invited. I am really worried about how all this will affect her confidence on the long-term and I would love some advice on how to make it less painful for her.
She is a quiet gentle little girl and I so don't understand why this is happening? Could it be that when a child is left out of a few parties people think nobody else invites that child so therefore I won't and it just continues.
