What should I do

I am just looking for some advice/opinions really. So my 8YO has been invited to his friends party this weekend we rspvd a month ago, and I get that friendships change a lot especially in primary school but this friend who has been a lovely friend so far has told my kid he doesn’t want to play with him anymore, so I said well that’s ok he’s still a good friend and you still want to wish him a happy birthday so we’ll still go to the party and he still really wants to go. But then today he’s said that his friend has stopped talking to him and told him he’s not going to talk to him anymore. So my question is what do I do? I don’t really want to take him for him to be ignored etc as that will crush him but I also don’t want to no show as I feel like that will really cement in that they have “fallen out” do I speak to the kids mum? Do I just mention that we don’t really know if her kid still wants my DS to go? My DS also struggles a bit with social situations as he has Autism but is very high functioning so he can communicate well he just struggles to read people. But he says that they’ve not had a fall out or anything he just thinks he’s been ditched. I can’t decide what’s best to do. Any opinions appreciated thanks

I'd speak to the mom. It's probably just kids being nasty but it's worth asking the question

Thank you that’s what I’ve been thinking I just don’t want make things awkward or seem like it’s being made into a big thing when it’s just kids being kids, I know there hasn’t been anything else nasty said or done they just seem to be playing with other people and just seem to have drifted, not really necessary to tell my DS that he doesn’t want to talk to him anymore though seems a bit harsh.
