[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What a gross, weird question. I let my kids play with any kid who is kind, respectful, and who they want to play with. If I don't care for the parents, I invite the kids for drop-off playdates at our home or meet up somewhere with an escape plan and good entertainment. I do not "filter" their social circle.[/quote]
Well, isn’t this how you filter them then? Based on the character of the child? I do this too. Also based on the character of the parents, though. There are a few kids who have snobby, materialistic parents and I try to steer my kids clear of them. They’re young, but I’ll bet the kids take on those attitudes in due time. No thanks. Related to the PP above, I may filter out a family if they have a fancy mansion. I don’t care if you have ungodly amounts of money, but if you live in a showy home you do not share my values. Obviously as the kids get older I won’t be able to nudge them. [/quote]

Way to teach your kids to judge books by their covers. Not sure your values are so great, despite what you think. [/quote]
Sure. Sorry your Tesla doesn’t buy you friends. [/quote]
