[quote=Anonymous][quote]Around age 2 it becomes more interesting for them, they are developing social skills and they start interactive play rather than parallel play. At around 18-20 months, they seem to become very interested in other children but they are more looking at them or parallel playing than actually doing a play date. You can achieve this by going to a park. [/quote] This. Also, your DH is right about a slippery slope. It also blurs boundaries. There is no plus that can't be had with play dates with other kids your child routinely sees, like kids in the park, at the library, etc. Odd that you call this a potential win-win. That's the same language the nanny who thinks nannies should bring their own children with them to work without a reduction in rate is a good idea. A win-win, she says. Since she is the only poster who thinks that, it's so very strange that you sound so much like her. It's even odder she hasn't weighed in yet about her "experience".[/quote]
