[quote=Anonymous]I have a 5 year old, OP, and I would likely do the drop off. My DD is pretty comfortable socially, moreso than myself, and adjusts pretty well to new situations. That said, all kids are different and it's possible that your DC might be uncomfortable without Mama. I think you should call the parent and just explain that your DC is 4 and never been to drop off party before. You could ask to stay, or, just ask the specifics of the party. How many kids, what kind of supervision, what kind of structure...anything you feel like you need to know to decide whether you can be comfortable sending your kid. As for the danger of molestation, I understand the fear and I do a fair battle with it myself. But, I want my DD to enjoy becoming an independent kid, so I think it's important to weigh risks, but allow things like parties if I can. Frankly, a day drop off party with other kids feels pretty low risk to me, which is another reason I would probably do it.[/quote]
