[quote=Anonymous]OP, here is why your behavior is a problem. Aside from your blindness to the absurdity of your kid inviting someone in front of others. If your kid has been included, she would probably feel left out at some point. Because group playdates, especially with an odd number, tend to have that happen. And then you would text me complaining about that. Instead of realizing it isn't a big deal and teaching your kid to shake it off. And I just don't really want to deal with it. Because the only fix is for me to micromanage all future playdates to protect her feelings, and I don't want to. Nor do I think it is age appropriate or good parenting. They have to learn to deal with these minor things. If the other mom had said yes, you would expect it every time and up your demands. That is why she said no and why she was right to do so.[/quote]
