[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You people are nuts saying you can’t bring a sibling to the playground.

If you have the option, I would take the older child alone, especially if it is a first play date.

I have 3 kids. I used to have 2 boys who were exactly 2 years apart. When older one started elementary, i was the one who hosted the first play dates. I was grateful that families would invite my younger son. They didn’t have to for birthdays.[/quote]

+1000. This is crazy, it is at a freaking playground. Not someone's house. Take your kid with you to the playground.[/quote]

-1000.  Give the older child the time and attention away from the younger one when you have a spouse at home to care for the little one.  No one said it wasn’t a fricking playground.  We’re saying that the older kid deserves time alone with his friend without the interference of the three year old.

NP. I find it odd to call the playground “playing alone.” What if one of them sees another school friend there? Are they gonna be like [b]“oh sorry, you can’t join our private playdate”[/b]…?

I think the only reason not to bring the 3 yo is if the moms want to chat without interruption.[/quote]

dp No but, I assume the school friend won't be a three year old.  It will be their classmate.[/quote]
