[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does everyone keep yammering on about the 15 year old babysitting? The kids' parents are right there, there's no need for anyone to babysit. That wasn't what OP was expecting. [/quote]

No, OP wants the teenager to "go play" with her 11 year old. [/quote]

Nothing wrong with that, she is a kid after all. She can't find anything fun to do with the other kids.[/quote]
Do you think everyone under 18 enjoys playing together? It’s like you’re unfamiliar with humans.[/quote]

I think it's funny that so many people are arguing that a 15 year is [i]far[/i] too old to play with younger children, but that OP, who is likely 25-30 years older than the 15 year old, should be perfectly happy to include her in their conversation. [/quote]

Yes we expect more of actual adults (OP) than we do of a 15yo. Crazy right?[/quote]

She didn't shun the kid, she just doesn't want her there. And that's not weird, because people often don't like to socialize with those in a different stage of life. Like a 15 year old and an 11 year old. It works both ways. [/quote]

Except the 15 year old was her invited guest. And OP forgot to tell the 15 year old she was banished to the basement. [/quote]

OP didn't even know about this kid's existence. She didn't extend the invitation to Mr. and Mrs. Jones, and Susie. The Jones' TOLD her they would be bringing Susie. [/quote]

They extended the invite to the Smith FAMILY, kids included. OP did not say that kids weren't included, quite the opposite. [/quote]
