[quote=Anonymous]My kids are at a majority Latino school in a different area and we've had the same experience. My 5th grade son invited a boy over and I offered to drive them to their band concert afterward. The mom told me that it was the first "playdate" he has EVER had outside his family! He has exclusively played with cousins his entire childhood, who all live on his block. My other son befriended a boy in Kindergarten and it took months before the mom trusted me enough to host him. We went on outings together, she inspected my house, and so on. Again, cousins are his social life. There is no culture of kids birthday parties. They don't throw them and they don't usually come to them. If you get close they invite you to their backyard parties which are of course fun but completely different from the two hours at a Trampoline park that white people do.[/quote]
