Birthday parties

My son went through this a little ands it’s honestly horrible! But I taught him that not everyone is your friend. Even if you play together at school. And treat people How they treat you. If they don’t invite you. You do not have to invite them. And I’d throw a hell of a party. 😌

Not everybody is meant to be friends with us but we should be friendly to everyone.

Take him on his very own excursion. Take him out to ice cream to celebrate “family day” or something like that lol

The worst one was when she was crying about her friends party however I’m not even sure she actually had a party. I will normally say well you havnt played with them for a while or don’t play with them so it’s not a surprise. There was one she wanted to go to and I said you can’t turn up at the venue uninvited plus she had her own party that day in the afternoon.

@Lizzie this! What Lizzie said!! In addition: I can remember this happening to me as a kid. I know if my parents cared enough to take me out on my own adventure, I would have felt much better. Feeling like you don’t belong or like you’re not accepted as a friend etc. sucks it can totally shatter your confidence Also maybe explain they can make their own friends, they don’t need to be “chosen” or “invited”to be apart of things😎🫶🏾

That’s shitty. My kids school doesn’t allow that. The rule is you invite reg whole class or they ask that you don’t invite classmates at all unless their is a previous close relationship with a specific friend who happens to be at the school.
