[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to host the other kid and not arrange to also have the other mom there. [/quote] This. I totally get not wanting to host younger siblings but no, I’m not going to bend over backwards to have a playdate with you/find childcare for my other kids so I can sit in your house and watch one of my kids play. And if we are meeting in a public place like the zoo/a park, of course I’m bringing my other kids! [/quote] +100, why on earth would you think this? I see that the kid could stay with dad while the mother is at the zoo, but why? WOuldn't it eb nice for your kid to have exposure to kids of varying ages? f you have more than one kid, the parents sometimes also need a break. Since the other mom is already on mom duty, why wouldn't the 12 year old come along -- because you feel like he doesn't want to?[/quote]
