[quote=Anonymous]I just posted about frequency of play dates. My son hangs out a lot with his friends. There are some kids he isn’t that into and their schedules don’t seem to line up. Then there are kids who will bend over backwards to accommodate you and your schedule. My kid is 12. We have had parents change their birthday party date for my son. Or they ask when my son is available and then plan the hang out. There are always pockets of open availability when 2 kids can find time to hang out. Both parents have to want to set it up. I have a friend who will consider her Saturday full if she has one kid who has a 2 hour birthday party and another kid who has a 1 hour sports game. We will often have more. One kid may have a soccer game and a birthday party and other child has dance for an hour. If one child is full for the day, I won’t automatically say other kid is unavailable. The days are long. We can squeeze in a 2 hour play date if someone initiates. [/quote]
