[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh, I’ve had friends like this.  But, the differences in parenting created problems.

I have many Indian friends. The ones who are American born are more similar to me, and the ones who are immigrants are different culturally.  Overall, both groups are cautious and don’t like their kids to be away on play dates/sleepovers unless they REALLY REALLY trust you. [/quote]

Isn’t it insane though? These are not little kids. 10 years old.   Wth?[/quote]

They just simply don’t trust anyone who isn’t in their family or a close personal friend. That didn’t work for me, so I encouraged my DD to make new friends. [/quote]

I understand they have cultural differences, and I have seen this in action. However I would not continue such a friendship for my DD. Encourage other friendships. [b]It’s real racism and very awkward and insulting.[/b] [/quote]

If she doesn't allow any other moms to host her DC without her, then yes, it's cultural.  If she doesn't allow any non-Indians, then sadly it is racism.[/quote]
