[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is probably what my 13 year old’s friends parents think about me but we just aren’t really doing anything to invite someone along. My kids don’t have parties so they’re not invited to those either but they do go to theirs. Or are these friends inviting other friends and not your kid? I don’t make my 13 year old’s plans and she rarely asks to have anyone over because there’s not a lot of room and she shares a room with a sibling. If someone asks if she wants to do something she’ll decide if she wants to and ask me if she can but it’s usually not at anyone’s house, just meeting them at the movies or something and I pick up my kid and the other kids parent picks them up. If you don’t want to host , don’t host anyone. [/quote]

I was a social kid but I used to live in a very small home and my mom would not leave us alone so I never invited anyone over. I did happily go over other people’s homes. This was totally driven by me, not my parents. If I asked to have people over, they would have said yes.

I now have 3 kids and live in a very large house that is good for hosting. All 3 of my kids invite friends over frequently. I alwahs stock snacks in the pantry. I mostly leave the kids alone to hang out. We have a 5000sf basement that the kids can just hang out in.[/quote]
