[quote=Anonymous]If the kid still says mean things to your kid, and the mom still does nothing, I wouldn't see them again. My kid's wellbeing comes first. A casual friend of mine practices attachment parenting. Her interpretation of it (I don't know enough about it to know if it's accurate) is that she never tells her kid no or disciplines her for anything, ever - she just acknowledges and redirects: "it sounds like you don't like X, let's go do Y instead". This child says similarly nasty things - "I won't eat this food, it sucks" or "this is stupid, I hate you". I don't think it's appropriate to parent someone else's child, but I stopped accepting playdates because they're not enjoyable for me or my child due to the her child's attitude. We text occasionally but I never agree to meet up. [/quote]
