My daughter has extreme anxiety. It's awful and no one knows about it. She hates being left alone at others' homes. So we have kids to our house but my daughter doesn't want to go to other kids' homes (except for one friend we are very close with). [/quote]

We are in the same situation. You wouldn't know to look at our DD and we try not to advertise it to others but she'll only be comfortable with a drop off situation at a few classmates' houses because we've been there like 10 times as a family.
It's not about trust at all. One amazing family has invited DD over a number of times but we try to host instead. I hope you're not that mother and that you don't think I don't trust you because we do!

This.  My super-social 7yo loves playdates but doesn't like to be left at friends' houses.  I'm the parent who stays at birthday parties.  We had the first drop-off playdates ever during snowzilla, when we had several days off from school.  I was so happy they went well.

I don't think everything needs to be balanced or reciprocal - it needs to be whatever works for the kids involved.[/quote]
