Planning a child's birthday party can be quite the process. As the parent, you have to learn the skills needed to plan the perfect party that fits perfectly with everyone's schedule and includes every child from their daycare, preschool, or classroom. Or do you?

Were all navigating these choppy waters of trying to give our kids the best birthday experience that doesn't hurt any feelings or leave anyone out. But I'm telling you,  it would be a lot easier if we adjusted our expectations as fellow parents to be okay with the fact that not every kid needs to be invited to the party. 

You want to go big? Do it up. Don't want any fiesta? That's good too because a birthday party is about the birthday child. Now I'm not promoting exclusivity but I do have 8 reasons why your kid might not get an invite, and none of them should be taken personally.
