Hi all,
It's my first post so hopefully I'll stick to guidelines and not drop feed etc.
I have a friend who I've known a few years now.
Our families see each other once a month on average and we all get on very well. Our kids are very close in age, she has 2 DC (2.5 and 5) and I have 2 DS (3.5 and 2).
The last few months I've noticed her be very short with DS1, things like getting irritated with him asking questions and either not answering if he talks to her or replying very snappily. I honestly don't know why she's so short with him as he's genuinely a very nice 3 year old and gets on well with her kids, and yes, he probably asks lots of questions that are typical of his age, but that's what kids do, right?! There's never been sharing issues or fighting etc so not sure why.
Basically it's upsetting me to the point of wanting to minimise contact. Should I say something to her or should I just ignore it and just avoid play dates etc?
I'm always really friendly and hands on with her kids so I don't understand the issue she has with my son. I hate confrontation with friends but equally this is getting really hard to ignore!!
Thanks for reading!
