[quote=Anonymous]OP, you need to establish rules/norms with regard to playdates, activities, and sleepovers - how many per week or month of each are approved and how long she needs to wait after she is sick before they can resume, etc. Make a calendar for your kid and help her to visualize - I'd color code playdates, sleepovers, and activities. Update it daily - if an unexpected playdate comes up and she hasn't hit the limit, she can go. If she's already used up the approved allotment, she needs to wait until the clock resets. You need to establish what YOUR limits are for each of these activities and then stick to them, unemotionally. You can also put some sort of reward system in place that your kid gets if she sticks to the plan without whining/complaining. Establishing these rules and tracking activities will take work on your part, but it is effective. [/quote]
