I'm Sorry, The Party is Cancelled

<< < (4/5) > >>

Evil Duckie:
A strong simple "no"  repeated often if needed would have been better.

Be proud of your DD. She might not have have handled the situation the very best way, but she was not rude and stood her ground. She is only 16 and felt pressured. Even though she cancelled her party she showed alot of backbone. Many adults wouldn't have done as well as she did.

Texas Mom:
It's a real shame that she's going to miss out on her birthday party - will she be able to arrange an alternative party, remembering not to invite Clueless?

The party isn't cancelled!

Clueless was just uninvited.

Texas Mom:
Thanks for your input, everyone.

I'll let DD read this thread when she gets home.

OOHH, well, if your daughter lied to get out of having the BF come, than that is a fidderent story and not a nice thing to do.  Clueless will find out what happened and it will cause hurt feelings.

I talked to DD about that!  I'm not comfortable with the lying aspect.

DD said IF she finds out, she'll tell her why she un-invited her.
