[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- UPDATE: talked with my friend and it went well. Started the conversation by replying to a text inviting my kid over for a playdate. I said “Before we coordinate plans for the week, could we chat? The playdates at our house have not been going well and I want to get your perspective.” We met up in person for a walk and I was just honest. I did soften it a bit by saying “I don’t know what it is about our house!”. She was genuinely surprised to hear the extent of how hard it has been but acknowledged that this is not totally out of the ordinary for him. She really wants to help him be successful with play dates so she actually asked if she could come over with him next time and be the one supervising at our house. I thought that was a great place to start. She was appreciative and emphasized how important our friendship is. I’m so glad I brought it up![/quote] That’s wonderful. Well done! [/quote]
