His it's common knowledge that in elementary school and younger, you invite the whole class, if you give out invitations in school. Yes this means the tool kid is invited, too, but c'mon.

that is insane. no. i'm not inviting every kid in my kid's class to her birthday party. that will never happen. that isn't "common knowledge" anywhere i've ever been, and i'm not exactly living under a rock.
i wouldn't pass out invitations in school, but i'm also not inviting everyone.
i'm sure you'll come back and disagree with me because lately you've disagreed with everything i've said, but i'm standing firm on this one.
Yeah Cville I thought about it again and took out the "esp." If you don't give out invitations in school it makes sense to me not to invite the whole class.
But if you are I think you should invite the class. It's weird/exclusive to single kids out in front of their peers like that.
I absolutely don't think you need to invite everyone. I just don't like the idea of one for you, one for you, neewwwp, you, etc. It's definitely questionable of the mom to send the invites to school, but blaming on the "liberals" and posting about it on FB leads me to believe she is a major asshole.
It's common knowledge that IF YOU PASS OUT INVITATIONS IN SCHOOL that every kid is invited. Or at least every kid of the same sex. If you send invites out in any other manner, you can pick and choose your friends. But in school, everyone is invited.
And way to blame the liberals for your lack of planning and organization. Stoopid is as stoopid does.
Also it is so refreshing to teach a child so young to only invite people they "like. MOTY nominee!
hold up. she's a hosebeast of epic proportion, but i don't think you have to invite every kid in the class to your kid's birthday. i sure as hell didn't.
of course not But you don't tell your kid to go deliver invitations AT SCHOOL to his favorite people. It is teaching them that they can exclude at an early age by handing out invitations in front of kids who will not be getting one.

C'mon what?
Why on earth would I invite some asshole kid (and you just know there's going to be one in every class) to my kid's birthday party just because they're classmates?
Sometimes kids just don't get invited to all of the parties. It happens. It's not the end of the world. There will be other parties for them to attend.
I know my children never got invited to all of their classmates parties because I'd remember attending +20 parties in a school year. Did she ever get upset about it? Yes, and I told her that stuff like that happens. Sometimes she won't get invited to something, but it's not the end of the world. She lived.
(I hope it doesn't seem like I'm attacking you, ninja, my questions are aimed at the general thought that people must invite ALL of their childrens' classmates to birthday parties).
His we are saying if you hand the invites out at school all must be invited. And I also stand by that being common knowlege. Otherwise put a stamp on it. It is the same as handing out vday cards. If you are going to do it, everyone gets one.

the real problem is ninja's use of the strikethrough, which i thought was a misplaced underlining.
everyone agrees that you don't hand shit out at school unless the whole class gets one.
That rule has been standard issue since I was in elementary school, and I'm ancient. You can't just walk around the class giving invitations to everyone but the smelly kid.

Kids do that every day on the playground. No invitation necessary.
I think it's a silly rule for schools to have anyway. I teach and those kids come in and talk about the party no matter who was invited or how. I also don't think it's a bad lesson to learn that not everyone will be included in everything.
I grew up overseas where there was no such rule and I was not a social kid. I survived.
That said, posting about it on FB is idiotic, as is blaming "liberal" schools.
She is an idiot, but I don't like that all kids in the classroom have to be invited. I would never force my child to invite someone he or she didn't want to.
I guess, unlike her, I'd make a reminder to mail invites so I don't run into that problem in the first place, and if I did, I wouldn't be blaming freakin' Obama or the school.
I remember in third grade I had my birthday party and invited every kid in my class except one girl. And that was because she always ran around at recess and shove all the kids to the ground. When she found out about my party, she asked me why I didn't invite her. I told her why. And then she shoved me on the ground.
