[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: Friend has a hubby but I think she just genuinely enjoys having her kid around. Even when hubby can sit. I think she seems to think we’re as fond of him as she is. At first we were thrilled for her and I think she ran with this. She’s the type to overpost on social media about how amazing her kid is. I get that’s her priority. That’s not ours and we’ve been more than accommodating but it’s getting tiring. Having an adult party on a weekend and you bring your kid it ruins the mood, we have to be mindful of the kid and he walks and gets into everything which I get kids do. As a mutual friend put it if the house isn’t really kid friendly and there’s a lot of breakables you’re constantly on the edge wondering if he will accidentally pull something down and break it-this was brought up as she brought her kid to our wine and dine party a few weeks ago. She tries to mingle and assumes everyone else will keep an eye out on him. We take turns hosting for the most part but she usually doesn’t since she prefers to get out of the house. we’ve all been friends for over 5 years. [/quote] I'm a PP. I was very clear with my friend with a toddler that my house is NOT child-proof and she should NOT bring her child because there are a lot of things he could get into that are fragile that I am not willing to part with. She got it and did not attend. If she had insisted on bringing him, I would have told her not to, for the above reasons. You have to be very clear, OP- "The gals and I would love to see you for drinks. What day would work for you when Nigel can care for young Byram?" [/quote]
