Because at the moment I just don,t understand it and have tried to work it out but can,t.
My ds is an only doesn,t have opportunity to play with any neighbourhood children at all.
So I try and arrange for school mates to come sometimes he is 8.
Well I feel as though all of my efforts have been fruitless during the holidays I have text a fair few people to try and get my ds together with theirs to no avail as they seem to ignore my texts even when I have offered to take their dc out with my dc for the day.
So what is it.
Could it be that they are too busy to reply to a text for gods sake.
Their dc's don,t want to come
They are just downright rude.
They can,t be bothered reciprocating to my ds although I don,t expect it although it would be nice.
Maybe they think I am weird or something.
I to be honest think they are just downright rude and I feel like saying stuff to them but my ds still wants to see their dc's so I feel rotten about it.
Some of these are friends that my ds had from his old infant school and I am thinking that they don,t see the point any longer in maintaining my ds's and their ds's relationship.
However I have had the same with friends at his current school.
I just feel put out and truly rotten my ds has asked for people I have text them, no reply ds will say phone them I don,t like to as I don,t want to look pushy.
Honestly what is the problem I would be delighted if someone text me for ds to come and play or if they offered to take him out and would jump at it but maybe I don,t have the great socail life lined up for ds that they have for theirs I just don,t know.
Perhaps I am just bothering them too much and should leave it be.
Is it just me or what.
Why do they ignore me maybe they are not really chummy enough with ds to play outside school however I figure that by arranging playdates it could encourage more solid friendships.
I feel so down about it tbh my ds has spent alot of time on his own during the holidays.
