[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. I never posted about needing downtime. real reason is that the other kid just isn’t who I want my kid around. We can’t say we are busy because we might run into the kid at the playground on the same day we turned down the play date. [/quote] Someone took over your thread, you need to start a new one. You're being cruel and you need to just man up to it. "Sorry I don't want sweet little Henry playing with Max, Max is an a-hole and Henry is a good boy."[/quote] I don't think it's cruel if Max really is an a-hole. In this situation I would use one of the many deferral options like needing some time off from playdates with each other. One of the kids who was kind of difficult in K-1 has gotten much better better over the years. I think his parents were too wishy-washy and it took a few years at school for him to understand basic social expectations. [/quote]
