I feel like reaching out to the dad is appropriate.
It’s not.

Start by peeing ... standing up.
The answer will be clear then

You can’t control others decisions.
You are kind.
Continue to be kind.

You really don’t think it’s odd and concerning that one of my son’s best friends doesn’t invite him to his birthday party? It’s not like it’s just a school friend. I’m the cuck for wanting to figure this out?
You really think you calling other parents to figure this out is conducive to helping your sons social issues? He’s going to get lambasted for his dad forcing an invite to a party.

What say the OT?
Parents told him he could invite 3 friends. He picked his top 3. Your kid didn't make the cut. Tell him don't take it personally, now he knows where he stands.

Kids can be mean, it’s expected, but as a parent, I was surprised to learn how mean some parents can be behind the scenes judging your kid, gossiping about your kid and building alliances against them in neighborhoods, on sports teams, etc.
Quite often these same people will act nice to your face.

The kid and his family aren’t your friends. Tell your son to find better friends than those who don’t invite him. Most of us feel a bit bad but you’re gonna get it for asking if you should intervene. Next time the birthday boy wants to come over say no and invite some other kid over.

Nothing hurts worse than when your kid is hurt or left out. It’s devastating. If you contact the other Dad your son will likely get a “sympathy invite” unless there was some type of legit reason or mix up and he was supposed to be invited after all. But rejection is a lesson that he will have to learn eventually..so perhaps the question is do you want him to deal with it now or kick it down the road until he is older? I don’t envy you. If I put myself in your shoes I might call if for no other reason than to tell the other dad that it’s bush league not to invite everyone. Good luck and I feel for your son

Are you implying that my son getting bullied at school is somehow responsible for this?

Just let it go. Take your son out to do something fun day of party. The kids will settle whatever any issues are.

Don’t relate it to the kids party but take your kid out for some fun that day, all day. He probably won’t even remember the party.

Good advice. Probably better that the one I was gonna post "Beat his arse".
How old are these kids anyway?

Absolutely do not reach out to them.
But absolutely do have a long memory and “keep receipts”. Your son will too.
It’s always possible that was their limit and someone had to get cut. Hurt finger was the reason they enacted to make kid’s decision easier. Are other kids not in the close friend neighborhood group invited? If so, then yes it was intentional.
