My dd has a little friend from her class coming to play and tea, this little girls mum is a lovely lovely woman and has been incredibly generous and kind to me but I find her daughter a bit of struggle.

I think i'm being a tad unfair because it's not that shes not a pleasant little girl it's just that they are used to the finer things in life-her daughter (age 4) will say things like "why haven't you got a trampoline? we have a trampoline and a water slide" "Why has DD only got 2 barbies-I have 6 in my house and a house house" "I don't like that orange squash" (ie it's aldi rather than robinsons) "hasn't DD got a telly in her room? I have a wii and a playstation in my room"

I just dont know how to deal with the questions and boastfulness-shes only 4 afterall.

DS's friend used to ask if we were going to go somewhere like a soft play because that's what he did when he went round someone else's house. He seems to have grown out of that now

We do tend to take them out to eat when DC have friends round. It's just easier. I can't be doing with any criticism and wasting of anything cooked.
