[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a dad bring his DS (my DS's friend) over with his younger child (a child we did not invite, but ok she was a toddler). He stayed over 6 hours. He expected us to feed all of them lunch AND dinner. Several times we hinted that they needed to go. My DH and I left the room to discuss b/c I was all about telling him he had to pack up and leave NOW (that was at the 4 hour mark). I actually left to go grocery shopping. My DH is to nice a guy. They were still there when I returned. Needless to say we have never done a playdate with them again. They call to ask and I make an excuse each time (they always want to come to our house). [/quote] Why did you hint? Why didn't you just tell him you have other things to do? Stop being so passive aggressive and communicate. Without communication, you will be both unhappy and a very bad host. Don't blame them for not reading your mind![/quote]
