[quote=Anonymous]I only host kids who don’t cause drama in my house. I have 3 kids. My middle child is the most social. He has a friend who is an only and whenever he comes over, my youngest is left and always ends up crying. We haven’t had that kid over for years even though that family has had my child over multiple times. Same social middle child has another good friend who is the youngest in his family. Since he is the youngest and is used to tagging along with his older siblings, he is nice to my youngest and genuinely doesn’t seem to mind her being around. My oldest has 2 good friends and they both probably don’t like a little girl hanging around but they also don’t make her cry and not mean to her.

The point is that families like kids who make it easier for them, not harder. My older kids are 2 years apart and boys. There would be some boys who would come over and all kids would be happy and get along. Then there would be kids who would cause my kids to fight. Guess who I would invite back?

Just from your post, it is obvious you don’t like the siblings around. The siblings are not having a good time and that is exactly why you are not invited.

I try to juggle my three kids’ friends. I make priority for my kids’ favorites. I will leave youbgest with DH and do something for older kids or vice versa.[/quote]
