[quote=Anonymous]My wife and I would see this differently. She loves being the host and is almost always happier having more people joining her. She once invited two kids to join us on our family weeklong lake trip the day before we left when she found out they didn't have other plans. I approach it from a more protective angle of wanting healthy boundaries. I do not like overcommitting or feeling taken advantage of. For example, our kid has a friend at school and they invariably ask to have last minute playdates at afternoon pickup. I always say no because I don't like surprises and I feel like it's a basic courtesy for those kinds of activities to be arranged in advance. That being said, I would want to call the mom and say we have to send the kid home because we have prior plans but that we should plan a future playdate together. [/quote]
