party invite - sorry!

[dinodino27]

I know this one has been done many times before BUT my daughter has not been invited to a party and i cant quite believe how upset I am.

My lovely bubbly 5 year old talks frequently about her good friend XXX. Tonight the girls in her year one class trotted out of school with invitations to XXX's party. DD then came out with no invitation in hand.

I just feel devastated for DD. She was so brave but aware and clearly confused by the lack of invitation

i really want to say to mum something like 'DD's invite seems to have been lost but she would love to come; or just simple 'is XXX doing anything for her birthday?'

I would never have thought i would be the type to get involved in playground politics but I am so upset for my little girl.

We have a class Facebook page so a couple if days after the invitations went out I put the details if the party on the page expressly saying that the whole class were invited. Turns out about 5 parents hadn't had the invitation home.

Nice idea Can'tdecide but not everyone is on Facebook or can afford to be readily online. Plenty of parents in our group in that position.

DS wasn't invited to his friends party last weekend. I asked him if all was OK and UE said 'yes I just haven't been invited but we're OK' and that was that. I was a bit for him but he doesn't seem to be bothered so its fine. I kind of figured that perhaps they couldn't afford to invite him or some other reason.
