[QUOTE="Andy, post: 407443, member: 5096"] I don't mind taking him home. The other two mom's are great about helping out if I am unable to (or unwilling to in the case of bad roads) get him home. It is very informative to have the boys in the vehicle talking as if I am not there - I get to learn what the topics of interest are these days. :) H's mom and I have decided that we will put an end to the push to have E go over to H's house to prolong the playdate. As long as I know I have her blessing, I can tell her son "No, E is not going to your house." H's mom has also not come right out and asked me not to include her son in the meal. I just don't want to make her go "ugh" whenever H comes over here now that I know what is going on with the food issue. Whatever we can do to lessen each other's stresses is my motto and I am glad to help out whenever possible. I think Star is right - I have to just come right out and talk to H's mom about this. 14 years old boys!!! They are all great kids but you put H and difficult child together and WATCH OUT!!! Manipuation to its highest degree. I can keep difficult child in check but the ways H comes up with to get what he wants is just OMG!!! And when he gets difficult child's backing to a plan than Warrior Moms to full armor and then some!!! We are going to put our foot down to the 6:00 and I will talk to H's mom about serving meals and what her expectations are. Maybe the one night that the boys are scheduled to come to my house I get to cook and the other night when they usually go to E's house but for some reason end up here I do not cook! [/QUOTE]
