Huh?  How am I not being kind to her kid? [/quote]

I wouldn’t go that far but I think you think your child is “Cooler”, more popular, more socially adept. It would not kill you to ask your FIVE year old son to suck it up and be nice to Andy for a couple hours since his mom is your good friend, but I suspect you’re afraid his weirdness will rub off.[/quote]

I'm so confused by this. it sounds like it's Andy who doesn't want to play with OP's kid, not vice versa. The mom wants the kids to be friends, but *her child* is not interested in this, so OP is like why would I invite them both over for him to ignore my son? [/quote]

I didn't get this impression. OP mentioned Andy being different/not social/doesn't want to play at all, so basically it's a playdate where her kid just has to play by himself. I don't think OP thinks her child is cooler, just easier going and plays with other kids easily.

The only way this works is, as a PP said, OP is willing to help the other mom out due to OP wanting that friendship for herself.[/quote]
