filly i agree totally.

Fillyjonk · 20/04/2007 18:33

it does kind of feck me off, all the politics that seems to go into birthday parties

i think you either

a. invite the whole class

b. invite all girls / boys

or

c. invite one or two close friends

What is Not On is to invite most of the class / boys /girls and leave a few out

I always do whole class parties or no party anyway, otherwise i think its kind of not so nice

Rise above it

Don't take it personally. Invitations get issued for all sorts of reasons, and these change as they get older and move on.

Don't invite the child to your next party then.

This is happened to DD I think. Children and parties can be a whole can of worms if you let them be, so I don't let it bother me.

Why do people do this. It's just rudeness on the parents part.

that would upset me too, no matter what their reasoning might be.
