Playdate gone wrong?

[Anonymous]

I agree-have more supervision and a discussion with your own child about how you noticed how he acted after the playdate, and that you do not want to see that again. Just because another child acts that way doesn't make it ok for him. You can also discuss their reasons for acting inappropriately if your family is ok with it. IE-they have ADHD and are still working medication and other things out. We have a nephew with autism and while they don't use the word autism, we discuss that everyone has different issues and that behavioral control is harder for some kids than others-but we know she is capable of it, and expect her to even if her cousin doesn't. We also supervise their playing more as he can also be aggressive.

(1) You fed them and then kept them inside. They were rowdy and rambunctious. Duh.

(2) Your son was wound up and had trouble coming back down.

The fact that one of the cousins hit his teacher.

This signals some unpredictability to me.

And how is that related to your son shouting rudely? Draw the line for me bc I don’t see it.

This child has some major behavioral issues.

He was playing with my son yesterday, at times aggressively. He also knocked over a vase, apparently by accident, and nearly threw a tantrum when he was told it was time to go home.

I noticed my son acting out and yelling after they left. He never yells at us, ever.

"Nearly" threw a tantrum? Why is there a vase in the kids' play area?

Your son was just wound up from the excitement of rowdy play with his cousins. It happens to all kids, it's not a big deal. Just correct him and move on

I was going to ask how someone "nearly" throws a tantrum.

I can answer the vase question. Because some people continue to decorate their homes even after children, and don't turn them into a giant free-for-all where kids can jump on sofas, draw on walls, etc.

Homes, sure. She said they were in the "basement play area." I don't decorate my kids' play area with ornamental vases

Has OP said how old the kids are? I can't tell from the post

Regardless, you can't keep your son from interacting with rowdier kids. You just need to be consistent about how you expect him to behave

I think it's that OP either wanted to blame someone else for her son's bad behavior or write it off as "boys will be boys." Neither is appropriate.
