If we don't teach them how to deal with it now, they'll be devastated later on. Again, thanks for commenting and reading!Is It Hot In Here?

There was a par...I agree with this wholeheartedly. There was a parent earlier in the year who was very upset because some kids in the class had received invitations to someone's party, but his daughter had not (mine had not either). I told him that although it was hard for kids to understand sometimes, it was important for them to understand that not everyone in a class of 20 can be invited to a birthday party. I told my daughter the same thing. And she took it fine. I think the "popularity" aspect of being invited or not invited is not really understood at this point by the kids, but it IS by the parents. So, they take it personally. I am happy that we haven't had this issue. My DD is fine not being invited to people's parties and understands that she has CLOSE friends and then just friends, and the invites go to the CLOSE friends usually. We also still have a lot of friends from preschool that we invite to parties, so that trades off with inviting people from her current class. And then every year, you have some people who stay friends after the year...pretty soon, everyone would have to be inviting 50 people to birthday parties to stay up with the demand!!!
