[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I said on page 1 that I wouldn't have these kids back. I don't think my kids would suffer not having a playdate with some out-of-control kids. I think they'd be grateful.

BUT

OP I DO think you should have made them clear up, not just kicked them out of your house. You've effectively told them that their behavior is fine. And its not.[/quote]

I disagree. I'm not their mom, and my one lame attempt to try to get them to clean isn't going to outdo [b]years of lazy parenting.[/b]

I've done the same thing before, and I'm sure I'll have to do it again.

To clarify: this is when a kid trashes my house. Not messes things up (it's kind of messy as is). I've had a girl rip my DC's favorite poster off the wall and tear it up right in front of him; he was 3 at the time. Some kids are just little sh*ts.[/quote]

Are you the OP?  
If so, did you check on the kids while your playroom was being "trashed" or not?

One might say, lazing parenting on YOUR part for not having a handle on the playdate and letting it get to this point.    
Check earlier.  Give the kids a stop point to clean up.    That other mother must have been humiliated at your rush job out of her place.   
Don't worry about her DS coming over; she'd probably decline and has perhaps tipped off other moms about you.[/quote]
