[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think your friend did the right thing. She is trying to teach her child a lesson, please support her in that mission. My kids are in HS now, and I did the same thing a few times when they were young. Play dates are not a right, they are a privilege. They are also lever parents can use to teach proper behavior. She gave you at least 24-hours notice too, which shows she was trying to minimize the damage on your end and give you room to make other arrangements. I don't understand why you are not more supportive of this friend.[/quote] I don't understand why you couldn't figure out a more effective technique to discipline your child. It's an ineffective punishment because it is not in any way related to the incident. Bottom line, don't make playdates if that is your "go-to" punishment.[/quote]
