[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you organize a play date for DD&friend at your house that precedes this event? Tell you son DD is having her friend over and that he should "hi" and then you two will have some mother/son activity while the girls play. That way you can ease him into the idea of his sister having another friend without it being in separate homes. He won't be uninvited or excluded as his first foray into the scenario. And for all you calling thoughtful OP names, dealing with "package deals" is a life skill too. How many of you have had a relative/friend marry a not-so-cool spouse and have to deal with the "package deal"?[/quote] Not the same. Family is, well, family. Elementary friendships are not on the same level. [/quote] Okay have you ever had a friend make a new friend or friend get a boyfriend/girlfriend that was... well to the detriment of the social experience? This WILL happen when one person starts dating. This will also happen when childhood friends get to middle school and one fits better into a different circle now that their options are more than next door neighbor. How about in elementary school when a new kid transfers and friend A wants to hang out as a threesome, versus the attention Friend B got when it was just the two of them. "Packages" happen, yes even in elementary school.[/quote]
