[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they ask, can you say "I'd love to but we our mornings are chaotic and we often don't go directly home after camp so I can't commit to a regular carpooling schedule. I know [insert your child's name here] will be thrilled to play with [insert other kid's name here] at camp though!![/quote] I have kind of poor social skills but an answer like that is always confusing to me, because half of it is yes and half is no. It sounds like they want to so maybe it’s an invitation to problem solve? Just say “I’m so glad they will be together. Carpooling doesn’t work for us, but Larla will look forward to seeing Hortense at camp![/quote] I agree about keeping it simple. “Unfortunately that doesn’t work with our schedule, but Larla is excited to see Larlo at camp!”[/quote]
