[quote=Anonymous]We host all the time. My kid invites about 25 girls over every other month. It is reciprocated by 2 girls. That’s it. It is fine. I would never penalize kids because their parents cannot host for some reason. That said, if you can afford it but just don’t want to deal with people in your home, a quick “win” is to offer to take a group of kids to a movie. You buy the tickets and ask them to bring snack money. You can’t only take the number you can fit in your car so you might rotate the invites. You sit in the row behind the kids. My husband and I consider this to be almost a date since the kids don’t sit with us. And by middle school, we all can enjoy plenty of the same movies.[/quote]
