Playdate? I'm a single dad...

[ZoomingOut2]

First, apologies if this is the wrong section.

Second, my daughter, 6, wants to invite one of her friends over. The problem though, I'm a man. Previously, a mum was uncomfortable leaving her daughter at our house. She only did that when my DD's grandma was here. I understand why it may seem a bit awkward...or do I?

Now, I want to invite the other girl over and not sure how to approach the mum without putting her in an uncomfortable position? She's got a partner, but he's hardly available.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!!

Hi. I’d ask this to be moved to parenting of even the AIBU thread if you want more replies

Why on earth would the other mum feel uncomfortable? I don’t get that at all. Why not just invite your DD’s friend and see what happens?

@losetlibrarian Thank you! I've just reposted the thread on Parenting.
