[quote=Anonymous]Take the long view, OP. I like what one of the PP suggested about how she handled pushing at the pool. Be direct and kind, and even admit that it may very well be your kid she needs to talk to you about the next time around. Treat it like something that can be handled. Talk with your child too about what to say and how to respond. Role play even—that’s good for any kindergartner anyway. But don’t sour that relationship—kids grow and mature, and meanwhile you could have if not friends at least people who can rely on each other in your neighbors. Our next door neighbors and our family feel so incredibly lucky to have each other. We do a lot for and with each other. And, yes, there was even a boundary-challenged five year old in the mix.[/quote]
