Ex and birthday parties!!

Dd sees her dad eow. He lives 2.5 hours away. She travels to see him.

At the moment she is getting invited to lots of birthday parties and the majority are on the weekend she should be with her dad.

She is a very social little girl - she's 7 - and wants to go to the parties.

What do you think should happen in these situations?

She travels to her dads straight after school on a Friday - we meet half way at a service station. We meet at the same place on a Sunday afternoon at about 3-4pm. We are home usually for 5.30 on a Sunday.

@SandyY2K fine for us but not for him. He says he has to work but social media always says otherwise. I've suggested it though.

Here, the invites go to whoever's weekend it falls on and that person responds accordingly. If it can be accommodated it can, if not it can't.

I've never seen it as a big deal. And I don't drop everything for a kids party, there's one every other week at the age! Exceptions are made for really close friends.
