[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are older, but I remember explaining my very short list of "house rules" to their friends who would come over to play in grade school. No jumping on the furniture, no helping yourself to snacks (all I ask is that you please ask first), that kind of thing. If they asked for a snack they knew I would respond, "What do you say?" (answer: please followed by thank-you). My list was pretty short, but they knew the score and my kids' friends were fine with it. Strangely, my house became the go-to after school house for the neighborhood. Let the kid know what your expectations, OP. If a kid had told me "F U", he would have gone home immediately and [b]I would have told his mother[/b] that he swore at me. Let her ask him what he said later. That is completely unacceptable behavior. [/quote] Only the mom? Was she a single mom? If not, why not tell the dad, too?[/quote]
