[quote=Anonymous]I think it's clear in this particular situation, OP should decline, using some of the generic language provided (but don't leave it open, I don't like the "not right now" language if you really don't ever plan to get together be more direct about it ). But for others in a similar situation, the consensus is to give the kid a chance, with a short and supervised get together, if you are able to do so, and if your child doesn't object. I would not suggest this if your child says "NO, I never want to be near that kid". But if your kid is ambivalent, give it a try, and if it doesn't go well you can say "they didn't seem to get along very well so we don't want to get together again soon".[/quote]
