[quote=Anonymous]They get together with friends regularly to "hang out" but we don't call them playdates anymore. For DD, it's talking with her 2 BFFs during the week to figure out when they are free and whose house they want to be at and then some confirmation/coordination between the 3 sets of parents. They tend to get together mosts weekends, rotating through the different houses. I've been driving or walking with DD to her friends' homes but with her starting 5th grade and almost 11 I'll be letting her walk/bike on her own now. DS's best friend lives on our street so hang out most days with no advance planning. We also encourage him to call other friends not on our street to plan to get together. Our only role is driving him as needed. DD loves sleepovers and tends to do them once a month or so. DS's friend regularly sleeps over at our house but DS doesn't like to sleep away from home so he might stay late at his friend's house but then comes home to sleep.[/quote]
