[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think parents need to stop worrying about their home situation and just invite a few friends. I swear no one cares how messy or chaotic the house is [/quote]

This. I have had many comments where people have come over and admired how clean and organized and spacious our home is and how theirs isn’t. I can tell that they feel intimidated by it.

I wish they wouldnt care so much. While I love to have kids over (and our home tends to be the meeting spot for DC’s group of friends, I wish others would offer).

I don’t really care how big or small or clean or messy anyone’s home is and neither do the children! [/quote]

I have 3 kids and they all have not been invited to other’s homes. Over the years, I have felt bad over lack of reciprocity. Now that my kids are older, others invite them out more frequently and the parents who never hosted do offer to drive my kids.

We have a well decorated large home and housekeeper. I feel like people get intimidated because our house is over 12,000sf. My kids have never been invited to friends’ homes who live in a townhouse or apartment. My kids would love to be invited over.[/quote]
