[quote=Anonymous]I'd probably not get together with the children in this case, but if your son is okay with giving this kid another shot, I'd coach him on how to respond and let him know I have his back + directly address the kid when needed.

-Your kid's response: "Stop it or I'll go away" If your son comes & tells you about the bad behavior, ask him if he'd like to leave and then do. 
-Your response outside of your house: "that's rude" or "that's hurtful" and leave if it continues.
-Your response in your house: "that's not how we treat each other in this house. I have to ask you to stop." If it doesn't stop, look the kid in the eye and say "I need to ask you to leave now" and walk him + Mom out.

We've done this with one of our friend families that really just don't seem to believe in discipline. We've sent them home early, we've left their house early - it's that or end the friendship and they seem to prefer putting up with the consequences of their lifestyle rather than cutting us off. Their call. [/quote]
