[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the parent of an only. We host a ton of play dates because it is easy for us to do so. DS enjoys time with a friend [b]and his friends get some time away from their sibling[/b]. We don’t invite siblings but we are fine with doing the majority of the hosting. If I want to take DS and a friend some place, I offer to drive the kids. I would expect siblings to attend a playdate at a park or a trip to the zoo if we are meeting. Either move to drop off playdates at your house or expect to have siblings at playdates.[/quote] I have two and agree this can be a nice thing. I think it's the part about the parent attending as well that is creating the sibling issue. And like you posted, the park or zoo setting just seems like it's a casual thing. I think everyone is more respectful of an event in someone's home and obviously dropoff is not babysitting for multiple kids.[/quote]
