[quote=Anonymous]Rude kids don't get invited back. Not that complicated. Some parents seem to not explain that it is important to be on your best manners when with other families. We definitely saw this from both boys and girls when our kids were younger. Not my job to teach these kids how to behave--they might get a "Pardon me?" from me, but the end result would be they are just not coming over for dinner again. The parents are the ones who created the monsters, so it is not worth discussing it with them. Some parents think it dims a child's light to tell them "no" or insist they behave a certain way. Unfortunately, they don't realize that sort of parenting starts to limit social opportunities by middle school if not before. I just use natural consequences--no more invites. [/quote]
