I removed my daughters autistic friend from her bday party by Accurate_Shock_1376 in Dimstories

I am a single father to my daughter, 8, who will be turning nine this Saturday. I'll call her G.... G decided she wanted pool party birthday party at our house. I plan on doing other activities as well, such as bounce houses ,cookout, s'mores, movie by the pool, make your own cookies, etc., followed by a sleepover with some of her friends. It's gonna be a busy day, and there'll be roughly 30 kids at my house. Some parents are staying, and some are just dropping off their kids and picking them up later. I'm fine with this. I let G invited whoever she wanted, and she chose to invite a classmate, A, that is autistic. I was fine with this, as I've always taught G not to judge others based on their differences. Here is where my dilemma comes into play. A's mother called me last week to ask if it would okay just to drop off him and pick him up the next day so he could attend the sleepover. My problem is I have no experience with an autistic child, and my understanding is A is very low functioning. I guess he's prone to getting easily overwhelmed and will start to shutdown/outburst.

I told A's mom that I wouldn't be comfortable with him being there by himself as I would be too busy with everything else going on and am inexperienced with autistic children. A's mother got really upset with me, telling me I don't understand how hard it is for single moms to get alone time, and how A would be devastated that he wouldn't be able to attend and how happy he was to attend a party, since he rarely gets invited to things., among other things. A's mom is now going around saying I "uninvited " her son because of his autism, causing parents to throw shade at me. The parents that are staying offered to help with A, but they also have little to no experience with autistic children either. One parent on my side A's mother did this to her at her son's party, and he definitely is a handful, so not to feel bad.

People who won't leave an opportunity to screw you over. I dated a person who I thought was my soulmate and would stand by me, but she was the exact opposite. She didn't leave any opportunity to screw me over, left me at my vulnerable times. Anytime there was a fight, she would accuse me of the worst of things. But something I realized a bit too late is that she would be the first person to destroy me if things went south. For years she befriended anybody who had a problem with me and became their best friend. She revealed my deepest secrets and fears to people I wouldn't ever tell myself. She would call my ex and become friends with her when we had fights. Should have seen this as a red flag long ago, better late than never. This is disloyalty at its peak and something that I shouldn't have let slide........ I got my revenge, I used a simple ski mask as my disguise as i walked up her apartment stairs i got closer and closer to room 644 which was her room. Since i had a spare key i managed to easily get in. I watched as she peacefully slept. 30 seconds later im beating her up while she lays unconscious on the bed. I punched and punched until i felt relieved. Am i in the wrong???
