  • Politics of children's sleepover parties. My beautiful, effervescent 6 year old daughter walking out of her classroom ashen grey after finding out that she wasn't on the list of girls attending tonight's sleepover at her friend - despite the fact that 7 of 11 girls in the class are. Fucking fuck. She's broken, and I can't fix it. Fuck.

  • I understand where you are coming from.

    1.Watch her favourite movie with popcorn.
    2.Play Minecraft with her.
    3.Have an impromptu 'midnight' snack.
    4.Tell her that everyone at the sleepover is not having as much fun or doing the things that you are.

  • Not wishing to sound heartless but make a fuss of her tonight and she’ll get over it. Kids are amazingly resilient and they forgive and forget easily and they move on.

    I’ve been there more than once with my kid when he was little, and tho it’s shit at the time, it all works out ok, trust me.

  • Its awful but well y'know - lessons for life .

    sigh

  • Organize a rival sleepover party for the remaining four. Start a sleepover war.

  • Yeah that's shit when it happens but like @jj72 says, she'll be fine in no time. I think it's almost worse for the parent. Think of it this way, they had 7 six year olds sleep over, if your daughter had been there, you'd be next to organise :-)
