[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure why posters are missing the point that OP is saying her daughter feels slighted for never being invited over to friends house.

Frankly, I wonder if the bff hasn't already confided in daughter, but told the daughter you can't tell anyone, and she has honored that.

[b]OP, is your daughter upset[/b], or is it just you who are tired of always hosting. And you seem to do a lot of work for it. That is great, except for the fact that you resent it. Let the girls figure out what to do on their own.[/quote]

Yes, she often asks why can’t I go to their house or sleep over there? I feel she is missing out on learning how to be a gracious guest, how to interact with others in their home, and manage herself without one of her parents for a night. These are milestones IMO she should get to experience as well.

You can’t put all of that on one friend.  It’s not your daughter’s best friend’s job to train her on how to act as a guest.  Explain to your daughter why she can’t sleep over.  Her mother is not up to it. [/quote]
