[quote=Anonymous]Honestly OP it sounds like you’re in a bind. If the relationship really is important for your DS I think you just need to accept that your friend doesn’t prioritize nurturing the friendship over whatever is provoking this threat of grounding. Maybe you could ask if there is some other way to get the boys together. But if you want the relationship to continue you’re going to have to accept that she doesn’t place the same value on it. I get it because I also have an 11yr old with limited friends and I do a LOT of bending over backwards to accomodate and nurture the friendships, and that absolutely takes a priority over a lot of stuff. IOW I would never withold socializing as a punishment because it’s too important for him. But I realize that other parents are not the same. [/quote]
