[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cancelled on someone for trick or treating plans. I think it’s ok because the family we were going with can still trick or treat. It’s not like a playdate that just doesn’t happen if we don’t come. They will go without us. (They live in the “good” neighborhood and we were going to join them.) I cancelled because our older boys keep getting into tiffs and could use some time apart. I’m not spending Halloween night mediating. Especially when the mom from the other family gets super upset every time the kids get into it. I think our family and their family aren’t good candidates to be family friends anymore. The younger siblings are in school together and can keep seeing each other at school, and that will be plenty.

The point is, sometimes it’s all more complicated than you think.

I didn’t say all of this to the other mom because she gets hurt so easily.[/quote]

Why not send your younger child with them or your older children with other friends. Mommy doesn’t need to be there. [/quote]
