[quote=Anonymous]No. If the issue is that they never offer to host, then it's not really about them having a small home. We live in a small apartment and offer to host all the time. We host rainy day playdates all the time and we host warm weather playdates at the park right near our home (parent drops the kid off at the park, I supervise while kids play, we go back to our house for snacks and quiet play once the kids have tired themselves out at the park). A small home is not an excuse not to host. If a home is big enough for a child, it's big enough for that child to have a friend over for a few hours. If the problem is that you don't think it's possible for your child to have fun on a playdate at the smaller home, and want to control the playdate by having it at your home, then you cannot resent the other family for having a smaller home. That's a you problem. Your kid probably needs to experience other environments.[/quote]
