I'm in co tact with an old school friends. We have children around the same age. But I've been finding it increasingly stressful when they interact and play together. Her child is rather aggressive, I try to show him how to be more gentle. He constantly hurts our pet. Pushes my child over has tried to shut him in cupboards. Every time he has come to my house has broke. Something. Included my child's favourite toy which has been discontinued. I'm finding it increasing stressful. Not just the children but also the fact that my friend does not give me any space to breathe. She constantly wants to talk, be together. She doesn't have transportation so I find myself having to take her here and there. I recently said I need space and time as I'm finding it overwhelming. I have anxiety and history of depression and sometimes just need some space. She listens for a little while but then it all continues. I stuck as to what I should do, what else can I say to her without hurting her feelings
