DD is 8.
She has received an invitation from her best friend to go to play at her house tomorrow.
I really want to say no because I know I'll have to reciprocate ....
The girl and her family live in a huge house ! It's lovely and nicely decorated .
The parents have professional jobs and live on a lovely estate.
Their DD even speaks a bit posh
We on the other hand live on a council estate in a council house.
It needs decorating but money is tight as I'm disabled and don't work . I'm trying to do it little by little .
There are weeds in my garden and the place doesn't generally look nice.
DD has been friends with this girl since reception and I've never offered to have her here as I'm so embarrassed - I don't think her parents would be happy for her to play here !
I've had other children from the estate over to play but I don't mind as I feel more comfortable with the children being from the same background as me / DD .
I now feel bad that they have offered to have DD over and I never have .
I'm also dreading the fact I'll have to her here in return !
