[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just hate their kids coming. [/quote] To be honest, I am not a fan of kids coming over. I have kids too, but they are pretty mellow, artistic, relaxed kiddos. They are not the hyper, jumping, chasing, bouncing types. We are quiet people in general. We like taking nature hikes, listening to music, going to movies, doing puzzles, painting, doing crafts. When we have guests with kids, they seem to think it's normal for their children to jump on the bed, chase each other through the house, throw things at each other, climb furniture. We just have different parenting styles and different expectations. The mayhem and noise that occur, can overwhelm me quickly. I look forward to all the kids growing up and not coming with their parents any longer. I miss adult friendships that don't have to turn into playdates with their kids. I try to have playdates outside as much as I can. [/quote] This. My daughter recently had a sleepover for her 9th (!!!) Birthday. It was absolutely appalling to me how many 8/9 year old girls had to be told repeatedly that climbing over/jumping on the sofa is NOT allowed. OMG. [/quote]
