My son has been invited to 2 parties, same date and time, diffrent sides of the city.
Party 1 is for a school friend, one of his best mates, but I can't stand the mother.
Party 2 is for one of my best friends kids. I'd love to go here, as I don't get much chance to catch up with my friend, but my son is not fussed on her child, and would much prefer to go to his friend's party.
My son is 5, do I go to the party that makes my kid happy, or the one that I prefer.

If he has been invited to both, let him go to his best friends party. Then, later that evening or maybe the next day, go visit your friend and bring gifts for her child/children. It's only fair that he goes to his friends party. He don't want to be left out and be the only friend that didn't show. You could have a good time at both... it doesn't mean you will have to have a meaningful conversation with his friends mother. Just stay focused on your lil man. It'll be worth it to see him grown up and playing with his buddies!

Why dont you like the mom? Would you rather your child not be friends with the child of party 1? My son is only 4 but I am totally going to be in control of who he will be spending time with. You are the adult and you have the final say. If there are balloons and cake your 5 year old will be happy at either one.

Find the time to hang with your friend on your own time. He needs to go to Party #1.
It's important for kids to be where their friends are so they don't feel like they're missing out on something hugely important. How will he feel when all the kids are talking about it and he can't join in. Left out of that every time it happens because his mom wanted to go somewhere else. Don't mean to sound harsh but he's at an age where stuff like that is starting to become important.

This is one of the few times I would make a comment like this but Duh are you serious? This isn't about you it's about him. If he prefers to go to his friends then send him. Is there a reason you would be expected to stay because I never asked parents to hang around when we did parties. If you are unsure ask. If you can just drop him off then do so and then you go to your friends for a little bit while your son's at the other party.

Surely you know the answer to this question! Take your son to HIS friend's party, not YOUR friends party! Oh and by the way, make sure to catch up with your best friend another time!

Your son was invited. Let him go to his best friends party. He will have lots of friends where you don't like or have much in common with the parents. You will just learn to ignore them.

You should let your son go to the party of his friend. Our kids are not always going to be friends with our friend's children. If your son is the one invited to the party, he should get to go to the party that he prefers to go to, not the one you want to go to. Or, you could always just go to whichever party he was invited to first.
