How about teaching her to be nice to everyone and also how to establish boundaries? Seems like a more important life less on than forcing everyone to be included, it isn't realistic.
If her daughter leaves someone off of the invite list then it might make sense for her to see what happens to the friendship.

I read the article and wondered what exactly the lesson was? I assume it was what the last line indicated (a perceived act of kindness).
I hesitate to concede that this act of kindness is what actually happened. As a youngster, I would not want to be invited to a party in which I was not wanted. If I found out that I was invited due to an authoritative mandate or out of pity, that would be quite a letdown. I'd feel like a loser.

Exactly, I recall as a kid being told by other kids that this kid or that kid was invited to a party because the mom or dad made the kid extend the invite. I'd also rather not be invited out of obligation and have other people at the party aware of this.
I was the fat kid as a child therefore was picked on. I KNEW when i was invited out of obligation or because the kids parents made them. I did NOT want to go because i knew i wasnt wanted, and that id only be bullied further, but was forced to go because my parents believed it would help me be "more social.", victims fault exhibit A
