and found out about it this morning. He is not good friends with the person who had the party, but his best friends were all invited... He's trying to act cool about it, but I can see he's hurting. Is there anything I can do to help? I feel horrible for him.

When I say sleepover, what i mean is that a bunch of boys get together and play video games all night- i don't think much sleeping happens at all!

Well, if he isn't good friends with the person who hosted, I can see why he was excluded, you can just explain to him that he won't always be included in everything, I mean really would you invite your son's entire class to sleep over just to avoid hurting anyone's feelings? What if one of his friends was in another class, then you would have to invite that entire class, before long, you would have to invite the whole school to avoid hurting someone's feelings. It is not realistic to invite EVERYBODY to a sleep over or even a party. You can do what you can to make him feel better, like hosting his own party or taking his friends out too pizza or the movies or something, but then again, you will not be able to afford to invite everyone, so someone's feelings will get hurt... do you get what I am trying to say? It is sad your son is hurting, but he needs to understand that this is part of life and learn to deal with it, he is getting old enough to learn that life isn't fair, and not everyone is his friend, don't shelter him too much, or when he gets older and you aren't able to shelter him anymore he will be in for a rude awakening. Let him know you love him and that there will be times in his life he will be excluded, but you will always include him, and that is what matters most.

Well, if he's not friends with the guy hosting the sleepover, then he didn't miss much. I think he missed his friends more. Had the sleep-over included other people he didn't socialize with, this wouldn't have bothered him so much. Get him to talk about it, about what's hurting. Maybe by vocalizing his feelings, it will minimize their impact somewhat.
Hope this helps.

Your SON is upset about not being invited to a sleepover? Okay... I thought that was just a girl thing.
Anyway, there's nothing you can do. In life, nothing is fair. He's thirteen and he can deal with it on his own. He's almost an adult and that's how adults handle things. (If he can't... I know why he wasn't invited to the sleepover!)

i think of that this entire ingredient would be chocked as much as "boys would be boys." As for the bedtime dresses, particular maximum teenage adult men will only positioned on their underclothes and probably a shirt in the event that they are chilly. while around others, regardless of the 1st individual does, something will save on with with. in the adventure that your son sleeps in greater outfits while he's by myself, he only did no longer prefer to look shy so he stripped down and wore his underclothes like his pals. there is no longer something greater or much less to this. the different father and mom won't difficulty - nor could you. As for the bathe - who is conscious? Who cares? It became into only a gaggle of fellows and no women so which you shouldnt difficulty approximately something incredibly undesirable occurring. it ought to have been some harmless interest or it possibly have been a teach me yours teach you mine variety ingredient, or maybe just some teenage horniness going out that should only be solved by ability of speaking a tub. bear in concepts once you have been a young person? There ya bypass.

maybe you can let him have a big party for his friends and not invite the person that had the party last night, or whatever he wants. Be nice to him, ask him what he wants, and help him with that!

Lady, do you even know what goes on at those sleepovers? They are 13 yrs old, they recently found out what an erection is, he probably had his first **** last week and quite frankly they are gagging for it. When you find out what they get up to, you'll be glad he didnt go. Just buy him a porn magazine or something.

Maybe you could get his mind off it and take him out to do something he likes. Then after he's a little happier and doesn't feel as bad about it, you could talk to him about it and let him know that things like this are going to happen more times that he is going to expect. Maybe he will not feel as hurt and unaccepted as he is feeling now.
Good Luck
