I say either you just invite one gender or you invite the whole class! I'm sorry but I think it's rude to invite just the people you are friendly with. I could never do that. That's how feelings get hurt.

You have to invite the whole class. They are all celebrating the same thing so why shouldn't all of them be invited to celebrate together?



A. You don't "have to" do anything
B. If you're doing this as a family thing, then no, I don't agree that you 'have to invite the whole class' ........

My son has been in Daycare since he was 8 months old - I have become friendly w/ a lot of his classmates parents, and we get the kids together outside of school

For his birthday parties, I always include the whole class (not b/c I HAVE TO, but b/c I think at that age, it's just the right thing to do)

But if I were going to have a celebration in my home, and invite the kids AND their respective families, I wouldn't feel the need to include the whole class. I'd just invite those I had a relationship with. Frankly, some of the kids my son doesn't particularly like, and some of the parents I don't particularly like - so I don't see any reason to invite them into my home. - Again, a 2 hour birthday party is different.

But, if you do that, you can't give out invitations in class ......

. Of course she doesn't " have to " invite anyone she doesn't want , but why needlessly hurt the feelings of small children ? It strikes me as inneccesarily mean.

I don't think it's ok and would invite the whole class since you are excluding a very select few.

In your case I would either invite the whole class or keep it to family and close friends.
