[quote=Anonymous]For everyone who is saying -- don't send your DD to her house but if they want to get together, invite her over. I get what you're saying -- that's works 1-2 times bc if she invites your DD over, your DD can say -- how about my house this time; or I don't have a ride that day - do you want to come over instead?

But if they do hit it off and become friends and the girl issues invites, how exactly is your DD supposed to ALWAYS get out of it? The other girl likely isn't stupid so if your DD never wants to go over again or if she comes out and says -- my mom says I can't come over to your house but you are always welcome to come here -- the other girl will know you/your DD have some impressions re her home, family etc.

I realize your only job is to protect your DD but how do you do this w/o hurting a friendship/hurting the other kid/teaching your own DD that we don't hang out at poor peoples' homes bc it makes us "uncomfortable"?

Best for all involved would be if this doesn't become a big friendship and your kid and this kid just see each other at school -- but you never know, what if they are on the road to being BFFs?[/quote]
