[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it’s clear there are two types of parents/kids. Some have an “everyone’s invited and the more the merrier” attitude. Others need to know who is coming and are turned off by general invitations. I’m in your camp - we have moved 4 times with kids and always to places where the majority of families are also transplants, so I really appreciated the general invite and group texts as a way to quickly get integrated into a community. But if you are in a community that already knows each other, they won’t be so receptive. People who haven’t had the experience of being the new family are not as open to general invites. Take the hint. Stop with the group texts and individually invite people. [/quote] I am a very inclusive person, but my DD does better with one-on-one play dates. She gets lost in a crowd since she is not loud/bossy. So we would not attend one of your group play dates, sorry.[/quote]
