Hi, I think speaking to the mother is the right thing to do. That was so insensitive on the mothers part. I think Dawn is right, it could be a good life lesson for your little guy. Hope all works out. All the best.

I would speak to the mother who handed out the gifts and ask her how she would feel if her child was excluded in front of others. That is just the wrong thing for her to do! I hope your son is ok and that it all gets worked out!

Take care,

You must speak to the other people there and get it sorted out as the kids are the reflection of the parents

Sorry to hear that.I certainly understand as I too went through that kind of behavior. As a mom. Bottom line is ,we hurt for them when they've been wronged in some way.As parents ,we do all we can to protect our children, especially things that can cause emotional scarring. I would use this opportunity to sit down with your son and turn it into a life lesson. Principles of love , and forgiveness. He'll be fine, just give lots of love.

First of all, I would take the parent aside and advise what she did was way out of line, and if she couldn't afford presents for all the children, then she shouldn't hand them out at the school. Invite the three 'friends' to a play date and exchange the presents there. Explain why this upset you, etc. You have every right to stand up for your child.
