My Beautiful Boy

I’m just feeling so down at the moment as I’m starting to feel like everyone hates us.  I think all my friends and their kids have just about had enough of Corey’s behavior.  I want to make excuses for him and tell them that it’s not his fault and he can’t help the way he behaves, but then I try to think about how I’d feel in their position, I probably wouldn’t like his behavior either.

I have one friend who has 3 kids the same age as my 3 and they are all quite good friends.  Her oldest is having a birthday in a couple of weeks and she keeps going on about how her son doesn’t really want to invite Ben because Ben doesn’t get on well with Corey.  That really annoyed me, they are supposed to be friends and she is supposed to be my friend and yet she thinks it’s quite funny that her son doesn’t want to invite Ben.  The fact that Ben doesn’t get on well with Corey has got nothing to do with their friendship or his birthday party.

They did the same thing to Corey last year when it was her middle sons birthday, him and Corey and very good friends and yet they didn’t invite Corey to his party.  Then they would keep talking about it in front of us and on the day she would send me text messages of her sons birthday cake – why would you do that???  If you don’t invite someone to a party you don’t keep talking about it and sharing those things about it to them.

Maybe I’m over reacting, but these things and a few others its just making me feel like they aren’t really true friends.

I know Corey is hard to deal with, he drives me crazy, but I hate seeing other people starting to dislike him and Ben because of his behavior.

I wish I knew what to do differently!
