[quote=Anonymous]We’ve had a few summers like that. We also have multiple years when my child has a MW or MWF activity schedule and everyone else has a TuTh schedule or vice versa so can’t often have play dates or their parents say things like “you’re never free to do anything”. Somehow the only people who have flexibility to do things are the ones who my kid doesn’t want to hang out with anyway. We are lucky that we have an understanding in our neighborhood that anyone can ring anyone’s bell at any time and the kids try to squeeze in play whenever they can. Low expectations make whatever they can do feel like a gift. The neighbor girl came over for 30 minutes at 9 am this morning, and my DD was at her house for 45 minutes before bedtime last week. It’s nice to not make everything a 3 hour play date or special outing. They all go to different schools and I like that they have easy friendships with each other.[/quote]
