[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you are being really anti social if you deprive your kids of play dates. Learning to engage and gasp even make friends is a core skill and they need those opportunities both inside school and outside. You would be conveying to your kids that it’s ok to be hermits and insular only playing amongst siblings. Don’t be selfish just because you are anti social[/quote] That's not true. It's often the parents of only children or those who have kids widely spaced apart in terms of ages that push playdates. Kids are in school 40 hours a week--it's not 'essential' that they have play dates, particularly if they're in extracurricular activities after school and on weekends.[/quote]
