[quote=Anonymous]I agree that the adults shouldn't force the kids to make up. How much are you interacting with the other family that the other mom has opportunities to try to push them together? If you are still close with her family, I think the idea of thinking of them like cousins is a good one. That said, I think if my daughter were accused of meanness by a friend (in, as you say, a "very bizarre way"), I'd want to be sure I had talked with DD about friendships generally and this friendship in particular. My DD was dumped by her best friend when they were 13 in a very clumsy way that was probably typical for 13, but ended up feeling very hurtful. I'm not sure if the other mom had any clue of what happened, but if she did, I'd hope she would talk to her daughter to help her make smoother friendship transitions in the future.[/quote]
