My lo had a friend to play (aged 5yrs and 6yrs). The 2 of them went out to play in the front garden with which there had been no problem before . I thought they had come back in. They wandered off and were found 20 mins later having made it within 20 meters from the main road. I didn't know they had gone till the dad came to pick lo up .Understandably the other mum was very upset. After that she was struggling to look me in the eye and was avoiding me. Things improved marginally until she told me that my lo had asked her lo why did we hate each other. I explained to the mum that I had told my lo that she would be very angry with me because of what happened because she was a good mum and that I would feel the same if it were the other way round . Since then she no longer lets her lo come round to play and looks upset whenever she see's me. I feel so bad for having broken her trust and upsetting her. She is a really lovely person and I don't know how to resolve it . She lives literally across the road and the kids were in and out of each others houses nearly everyday. I struggle with difficult situations and generally panic and end up just making a mess of things. I know I have to talk to her I just don't know what to say.
