Hi all really need advice, my daughter started school in September at the school we really wanted her to go to after winning our appeal. We we're so happy until on the 1st day I noticed that the daughter of an old neighbour who I fell out with because I heard them talking about me in their garden. So I stood upto them because they were Very 2 faced, was in the same class. Until now we have kept our distance from eachother, our daughters play together and my d talks about X's daughter. But a close friend of X's who's daughter is also in the same class and plays with my daughter invited the whole class of girls except for mine.What hurts is my daughter told me everyone was invited except for her but that the birthday girl said she was invited. What I am worried about now too is that X has become close friends with other mums who's daughters play with mine and who I speak to. As they get older will they isolate and bully my daughter? Should I move her now to a new school before it has a chance to start ? If knew that standing up for myself would end up effecting my family I would never have done it. Thank you for reading

I am a bit lost to be honest:

  • Why o you think X still cares after all this time?
  • Even if X does still massively care, what makes you think she'd take it out on your child?
  • Even if she wanted to do so, what makes you think she has the power to turn a whole class against your daughter?

Honestly, there is likely some other explanation regarding the party and I think you are both massively overreacting and massively overestimating this women's influence (unless there is other information?) Smile

What did "standing up to her" involve? Were your children present at the time?

Unless you know from some other source, I would doubt all the other girls were invited to the party. It is a rare mother that would exclude only one. Sometimes DC get a bit confused about these things in their enthusiasm.

So your dd was told she was invited? But got no invite?
Could the mum have used a class list your dd wasn't on?
Moving school seems a disproportionate reaction to this. What did they say about you that was so bad that you think it would still be rumbling on?

Invites regularly get lost in the Bermuda Triangle that is my dd's book bag.

Have you asked her?
