[quote=Anonymous]OP here-

DH had a talk with DD this past weekend and she admitted that she didn't like the way the new girl smelled (I didn't see that coming). I still don't know if it's an issue my daughter personally has with her or if it's a problem her friends have with her. I don't know if it's an ongoing issue or a one time thing. I also don't know if it's a food smell or an needs a bath smell. My daughter has an EXTREMELY sensitive nose.

In any case, we've made it clear that she WILL have the play date this week. We told her that even if she doesn't like the way that a person (or their clothes) smells it doesn't make them any less of a good, fun or kind person.

She was NOT happy with us but she'll get over it.

To 13:53- There are PLENTY of things that can happen in first grade to make a person legitimately want to cancel a play date. Not all children are kind (in fact many are down right horrid). A different girl in her class likes to tell the other girls that they are fat and ugly. She's extremely adept at relational aggression (I've seen her in action myself). My daughter used to be very friendly with this girl until the nastiness started. She is one who can't be trusted in a class or one on one.[/quote]
