Going to play at other kid's houses
| Wed, 12-27-2006 - 7:16pm |
My question is how does one let their kids play at their friend's houses when we only met the parents a few times? I have an 8 year old that I've talked to about keeping himself safe, but I am still nervous about letting him play at friend's homes at play dates when I am not close to the parents. I've only met the parents at the drop off of the playdates and haven't sat down and talked to them.
I hate to keep my kid from his friends so I let him go play. Am I doing wrong? Should I not let my kid go play at his friend's house unless I have gotten to know their parents? What do you guys do?
Thanks,
Brandy

I have a 9 yr old daughter and we have friends over here a lot. W/parents I don't know well, I'll invite them in for coffee or something just to have a chance to chat with them...and its always nice to talk to other moms. Hope this helps !

My daughter's not at that age yet either, but i'm curious to hear what everyone else will have to say about it.
