[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Twin mom here - 12 yo g/g No, don't ask. Your kids need to have friendships outside of their sibling relationship.[/quote] Another twin mom. Your girls are older so I'm wondering how you handle when both children consider someone a friend, but only one gets invited? We have always done separate parties and play dates with no problem, but wondering as they get older how to gently say they don't like you to the one who is not invited?[/quote] You don't tell them that the host kid doesn't like them. Unless there is a pattern of the host kid not inviting the same kid, or otherwise demonstrating that they don't consider the kid a friend at all, you say that they host kid wants a playdate with just Larla this time, or that maybe the host kid feels closer to Larla. There are degrees of friendship. [/quote]
