[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you've been having drop off playdates for 3 years, I would be disciplining this child like he was my own. When he doesn't listen to a well stated rule, he goes home. Each and every time. Good god you've been a doormat for years.[/quote] This. Unless he has social needs, then this. It is very simple and effective. Lay out clear guidelines, offer reminders and warnings if you see it possibly coming. Then boom-home. Keep mom in the loo and let he know the boys seem to be struggling following rules when they are together so you are instituting this new rule until things improve. That makes it a partnership of managing them and warns her of sudden calls. That also gives her the power to do the same in her home. [/quote]
