Ok, our house is rented and not beautiful, but we have a wonderful back yard with a fire pit. Almost every night Jumper goes to some friend's house to a fire. She never ever has one at our house. Because of this, I know her friends by sight, but I don't really know them at all. The other moms all know the group of kids, but I don't.
I am insisting she start bringing her friends to our yard for a fire. I want to know the kids too and I feel very awful that she will never bring the kids to our house. Are WE so terrible? Is the house THAT awful?
She is not open about why she won't do it. I feel like she is hanging out with a bunch of kid that I don't even know. They are good kids, but I've almost never spoken to any of them except to say "hi." The parents of these kids are cliquish and not friendly so I don't get to meet them either. Gives me no idea who these families really are. I think I"m going to make her stay home until she plans a few bonfires at OUR house. After all, it is easy enough for her to do and she has a lot of friends. It's not like she can't do it.
What do you think?
