[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get why you dislike being the intermediary. Thats....a lot of what parents do before children can drive, and especially before they have cell phones. Maybe I don't get it, but my kids are 10 8 and 6 and they set up all of the after school play in the neighborhood on nights where we don't have sports (lots of SAHM = lots of kids available after school). When they want a playdate they get the kids moms # and I call them and set it up. We are new here but I've found other Moms to be easy to meet and befriend, that helps as you trust people to have an eye on your child when they are at their home. Yesterday my two boys were out at friends houses that lived about 2 miles away, we dropped one off and the older boy rode his bike as the neighborhoods are connected by trails. My daughter had a friend over who also lives about 2 miles away, friends mom dropped her off. All of that took me texting with the other parents. [/quote] I assume you SAHM since you are so easily arranging play dates last minute. That is part of OPs problem, she won't be home to accommodate play date unless she leaves work early. And it tends to be different for daughters from my experience, their friendships tend to carry over from younger years. [/quote]
