[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes you still invite their family if they’re part of the group - unless you want to cause drama.

Not to excuse whatever happened, but many 8-9 year olds
are still working on impulse control. So unless it was really egregious or caused permanent injury, I would just play nice/ polite with them to keep the peace. [/quote]

Right.  I actually did end a close friendship over parenting/child behavioral issues, but it was because I knew that my child and the other child just could not be in the same room together based on repeated interactions.  If this was just a one-time incident, it's hard to see why OP is reacting so strongly. What I suspect is that she never really liked "this mom," and this incident just brought it to a head.

No, I love this mom. I consider her to be one of my closest friends. I think I’m still very upset about the whole incident.

As much as I love the mom, I love my child more[b]. And this was not a first offense[/b].[/quote]

What other things has he done?
