[quote=Anonymous]I have a 10yo as well as younger kids, and I don't feel confident about how to handle older kid get-togethers. My son has a friend of several years whose parents are divorced; the kids have played together at the mom's house but we don't really know the dad and the few times I've met him, I just get a very creepy vibe. The mom emailed to set up a time for the kids to hang out, we agreed on a day and then she passed it off to the dad who proposed taking both kids to a relative's house for the day in another town. I just don't feel comfortable with this (and my husband says absolutely no) but I wonder if we're being helicopter parents. We don't socialize tons and sometimes I think we're just not normal about these things. OTOH, 10yos are the perfect age to engage in a lot of stupid, reckless behavior on the internet or otherwise... Please don't flame me either way. [/quote]
