[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those of you saying you don’t have space, house is messy, siblings, dogs, whatever, are making excuses. If you wanted to host a sleepover you could. Or host an evening gathering and have the kids go home. I have an only DD (11) and host single kids now and again but rarely. I do however take kids with us a lot on outings. Just took a friend tothe beach with us for 3 nights, and a different friend to the pool all afternoon yesterday. Own your decisions and be honest, but make some effort to reciprocate. [/quote] Your kid is 11. Is she making these plans? I have a 12 yo and it’s been a very long time since I’ve planned something to host. Kids plan and parents say yes or no. You are assuming our kids are asking and we are refusing. My kid makes a lot of plans and 99.9% of the time it involved asking me for a ride and if we can pick up certain friends. At this age they are arranging the carpool and then checking with us. [/quote]
