To feel offended he didn’t include my child

Boyfriend of 2 yrs. he gets on with my child. Boyfriends brother was having a family meal for their child. My boyfriend asked if I wanted to come. I asked if my child could come and he said he would find out and come back to me.

It’s a family meal for a 12 year old and my child has been to his family meals before.

I am a bit offended my child wasn’t automatically thought to be coming with me. I don’t feel like going now. Am I being over sensitive?!

I think it's very likely your ds was assumed to be coming with you by bf's db. I think your boyfriend has been the thoughtless one by making a deal out if checking he's invited.
Pretty likely his db would say 'Of Course'. Especially as the DC are so close in age.

Does your boyfriends brother even know your DS that well? It sounds like a family thing & technically your DS is not family.
