Mean Parents

Must admit the idea of inviting the whole class to my child's or grandchild's party is beyond me. I come from the old school where you invited half a dozen of your closest pals and that was it. It was just a fact of life that some children were your close friends and some were not. Its not a bad lesson in life - you cant expect everyone to like you.
However, if just one child out of a whole class was excluded that would seem a tad perverse. But how on earth does one cater for over 20 four year olds?

I'd be furious, Grandelly54. What a mean thing to do to a 4 year old. I'm trying to believe that it might have been a misunderstanding and that your grandson will get his invitation tomorrow. I certainly hope so.

Oh - poor wee lass. Give her a big hug.

No, I agree Grandelly, it's pretty awful to do that in front of a little one.When they are much older, they have to accept that they won't be invited to everyone's parties, but tiny tots can't understand that. The mother should have sent the invites another way if she only wanted a few classmates to attend.
