[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - responding to prior poster at 00:20 and claims I am shunning the child. Where have I ever said I am excluding him from group play?

Original post at 12:39 - 
 my son has complained to me about a little boy in the neighborhood who pulls his pants down and shows his genitals or hits other kids. My son is no longer allowed to play with him, nor does he want to, due to the hitting.

OP here - I don't know why I am expected to allow my child to play with another boy who is hitting him and exposing himself to him and other children in the neighborhood. Does inclusivity trump safety?

I have mentioned it to my neighbor multiple times, but the behavior has not changed. So no, he's not allowed to play at our house because he wants to play in the bathroom with the door closed, and I say no. He cannot follow house rules and has very loud meltdowns. I have said to my son he cannot exclude him from group play, but he doesn't have to play with him if he doesn't want to and he's not allowed at our house because of his behavior.

The child's social development is the responsibility of the parents first and foremost and the intervention therapists. This is not my burden to bear. I've watched the mom supervise her children. She sits with her back turned and is reactive. My son is not allowed to play with him 1:1, and he does not want to either.

He doesn't follow the rules. His mom doesn't properly supervise. My son is bothered by the behavior. Again, I don't see why inclusivity trumps safety. My responsibility is to care for my son, not the entire neighborhood which is the crux of my annoyance. I am tired of feeding, caring, and now (according to DCUM) being responsible for the social development of a disabled child in my neighborhood.

I said this about shunning him from the neighborhood.  I’m glad that you told your son to stop excluding the child from group play.

I’m not sure why you would ever have this child in your house or set up 1:1 play dates.  It doesn’t sound like he is a good playmate for your child.  [/quote]
