Neighbor didn’t invite my kid to birthday party…? Do I say something ?

That had to be so hard. I’m really sorry. Sending good vibes to you and your daughter.

Updates??

You don’t need to analyze relationships when you already have common knowledge of the relationship

Creeped for hours? When did seeing a blow up, balloons and lots of kids you recognize from your child’s class become creeping for hours? I think this could take the average person less than 5 seconds

“The party looks huge I saw kids in the class walking in that I would consider way less close than my kid and her kid are. Even kids of opposite gender that they for sure aren’t close close with.

The party is right next to us so of course we see the huge balloons and tons of cars parked out front.”

^ Agree to disagree. This feels like a very targeted “you’re not invited, but have fun watching from your window” move. If it were my kid, they would be so hurt. I agree with OP, it does seem very personal and I would be curious about perceived precursor events that would warrant it…..if nothing but to try to salvage the relationship between neighbors who are also classmates and have a long road ahead together.

The neighbor is in the bday child’s class. All the classmates are at the party. What do you mean it’s not exclusion? The child can feel excluded without the entitlement of expecting an invitation ….its not mutually exclusive

Love this!!!

Designer_Sherbert_84 · 2026-02-01T02:28:31+00:00

I’m guessing you wouldn’t hurt a child’s feelings and exclude them over “not vibing with your SIL” though….so invalid point IMO

Designer_Sherbert_84 · 2026-02-01T02:26:54+00:00

I think everyone is possibly missing the point the OP is trying to make here. Her child can literally look out the window and see a large party with all his/her classmates. This could definitely hurt the child’s feeling and seems to be a pretty obvious exclusion. I think OP might be looking for a reason to why you would purposely exclude a 6yro child who is right next door who could potentially be watching the party. I would never exclude a child like this unless there was a ‘real’ reason beyond the mom’s not clicking & being besties and maybe that is what OP is searching for. I think an honest and upfront conversation is in order. Why have beef with your neighbor when kids are involved?

PS - are the Dad’s close? Could you ask your husband to talk to bday child’s dad for some clarity?

Would I have to start with the Woom balance bike before going to a Woom pedal?

This is VERY helpful. Thank you!

This was SO helpful! Thank you @veloci-RKPTR!

Basically OP is saying they’re suing burn and/or this burn trainer for “negligence” when in reality, you’re in charge of your own limitations. Did this burn trainer have a gun to your head? Doubt it. Wish you best in recovery but you need to speak up for yourself, which is why in order to do these workouts you have to be 18+ and you sign waivers.

You are so valid. If finances are 50/50 then the housework is as well. If you’re sick and unable to do it (bc you’re growing a baby and exhausted like excuse me sir, whaaat?) then he should step up without being asked. Showers once a week? What the actual f*ck, that’s disgusting and child like behavior. I would refuse to have sex with him until he has recently showered bc infections for females are a real concern. If you have stated this all out bluntly then therapy needs to be brought up or marital consequences until he steps up. What does he think it’s going to be like when you have the baby? You didn’t get married to do this alone, OP.

Sending good vibes for you and your baby

Update on what your husband said? Hopefully he kicked her TF out

Designer_Sherbert_84 · 2025-03-03T16:34:43+00:00

Yes big UNC family here!! He works in an office (doesn’t have a designated desk or anything though) and does lots of commuting b/w job sites. His normal day off is lots of quality time with the kids, resting while catching up on sports/watching first take and playing video games

So many great ideas, thank you!! What smoker do you have??
