[quote=Anonymous]As the mom of a kid with some coordination issues and phobias, who only recently mastered "faking it till he makes it," I think it is FINE to decline and tell why. Something like this: "Thanks so much for inviting Johnny. He loves playing with Larlo but isn't comfortable ice skating and doesn't want to hold people back! Happy birthday to L!" So much better than setting up Johnny for failure by sending him to something he really dislikes. Of course, I would ask my kid first. If he says he'd like to try ice skating, or whatever, I'd say great and let him go.[/quote]
