[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are play dates only for small kids? My elementary kid got a lot of play dates. My 7th grade got none except for birthday party invitations. Is this normal in the private schools? [/quote] With older kids most of the time they are hanging out or socializing over social media rather than in person. They are also more busy with sports or extra curriculars. I think teens hang out in groups or at organized social events more than one on one playdates, but sometimes my 7th grader will specifically ask to have a friend over and we'll make arrangements. Since teens don't want to have as much involvement with their parents as they used to, you either have to wait for them to bring it up or just ask if they want to invite a friend over sometime.[/quote] Thank you[/quote]
