My DD is 7 and very keen to have a sleepover with a close friend who comes to tea at our house probably once a week during term time (because it's a good thing to do, they are friends, DD is an only child, it helps with friends mothers childcare arrangement and my part time work commitments means I can help out on a regular basis).
Both families are friendly and we share are family days out a few times a year.
I've never poisoned friend with my home cooking - lol. No limbs have ever been broken. They always play nicely together.
Problem is every invitation has been declined - politely and dare I say it in an overly flowery way with excuse that whilst mum is ok with it it's the dad that's says no/feels child too young etc.
However children talk freely don't they and it's obvious this child does go on sleepovers after all. This is leaving my DD upset and confused.
I would appreciate opinions - from both sides of this dilemma - please feel free to speak candidly. Thanks.
