Mom blocks me for not inviting her son to my son's sleepover 🙅‍♀️

Hosting a children's party is fun, but what happens when a parent continuously fails to pick up their child on time? OP faced a similar issue with James' mom, who repeatedly showed up late to pick up her son James. When James was not invited to OP's son's sleepover party, the mom was offended and demanded an explanation. OP decided to be honest about the reason and now James' mom has blocked her on social media and her phone. Was OP in the wrong for telling James' mom the truth? In this post, we'll explore the dilemma and reactions from other parents. But first, let's dive into the details of the party and why James' mom's tardiness was an issue.

NTA honestly answered why her son wasn't invited. Mom blocked OP.
