The woman detailed her story in the 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' forum on the U.K.-based community site Mumsnet, explaining that her 10-year-old daughter was recently invited — and then uninvited — to a classmate's end-of-the-year party.

'I don't want [my daughter] to be upset and excluded, but I don't know if I can let her be the mean girl, excluding someone else and making them upset,' the OP said in a follow-up comment. The majority of the woman's fellow community members said they thought that she should throw the party — and that it might even serve as a learning moment for the other family. 'Do it. You're teaching the girl and her mother a valuable lesson here — that its not nice to be mean. Her mother obviously isnt teaching her,' one person said. '[Throw a] bigger, better party for sure,' said someone else. 'I'd go full-on petty with this one, and if the mother complains, [say], 'Well, you know what girls are like with parties nowadays.' However, a few other Mumsnet users advised against it. 'Don't. Go high, not low," one person said. "A 10-year-old, we can forgive [...]. However, she's sadly got a weak, ridiculous parent. Go ahead and throw your daughter a party," someone else said before adding that they would invite the other child in order "to show the [other] mother how to behave properly.'
