My dd is nearly 12 and has just started high school, she is my first born so I am all new at this stuff.
She has a friend from primary who has latched on to my dd. They walk to and from school together which is fine, she lives about a 10 min walk away.
This child keeps coming home with DD after school, coming right in the house begging for DD to go with her to her house I keep telling her no DD has homework etc. She turned up yesterday as we were having tea and just came in and said I will wait till you have finished, then DD went to the park with her and DD was a bit late home. This girl then come in again and basically I had to tell her to go in the end.
When I was at school you made prearranged visits to someones house maybe once a week or so. But this is turning into a daily event. This girl just wanders in and I am feeling uncomfortable in my own home. My DD is shy and quite easily led.
Is this normal once kids grow up or should I tell this girl not to come back unless invited.

Is it normal for my dd just to bring other kids round?
