Parents avoiding my son’s birthday party

[Imamomofone]

there was a parents in my son’s class group who didn’t come to my son’s birthday party last year . We are very nice to them , have helped each other few times , and have always treated their son nicely . I missed his son’s last part because of timing misunderstanding but did deliver his gift thinking the little one will be happy . My son plays with their son too . This year , they are again avoiding to come to my son’s birthday party. They went to all other birthday parties . This has made me think whether they are deliberating avoiding us based on our social class / financial status ? We are renting in a rich area where they own a house , and most of the other parents do but I can’t come up with any reason in my mind other than thin as to why they will avoid my son’s party ?

Unless you've viewed their diaries and spoken to them you've got no clue what they're doing. Lots of parents have endless sports clubs etc to take their children to after school and at weekends. Personally I didn't want to stay at any children's parties unless I was close friends with the parents and even then not always. People have busy lives, don't take it personally.

DD didn't go to every party in infants, there seemed to be one every weekend and it often blocked out one morning or afternoon on a weekend, which intrudes on family time/clubs etc.

Maybe they have a relative with the same birthday as your son.

Not everyone can make every party.

I'm curious about this on your original post

"I missed his son’s last part because of timing misunderstanding but did deliver his gift".

Did they pay for your child to attend a party that you didn't go to because you misread the invitation? If you did then yes, they might still be a bit irritated by that.
