They were talking about the great playdate their daughters had together which was not meant as a dis of excluding you or RR (or anyone else in earshot). Kids at this age do not have preferences on who they want to play with. They also do not have friends in the same way older kids do. If these girls moved away from each other they would probably not remember each other several months later Perhaps, the mothers of the kids who have had these playdates with this child you refer to are friendly and the inviting mother figured she can spend some time with the other mothers and have their kids play together. Definitely take the proactive approach and see where it gets you.koshergourmetmarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130278915757648096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5488433810039574602.post-84155884457651540992011-04-10T13:40:10.963-07:002011-04-10T13:40:10.963-07:00Agreed, if this important to you (and it should be...Agreed, if this important to you (and it should be) take the initiative and start inviting.Commenter Abbihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07753256568022159103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5488433810039574602.post-40984772551910779072011-04-10T08:36:28.683-07:002011-04-10T08:36:28.683-07:00I think you found the right solution: be proactive...I think you found the right solution: be proactive, don't wait for this child to invite raphaela, invite her if you think she should play with her... or an other child who is friends with raphaela...<br /><br />I know what it feels like to feel "left out", but I had to convince myself that most of the cases it is just a coincidence that I stand by when people discuss things like "this wonderful playdate", and the roles might be inverted (me discussing "wonderful playdates" with others, while others are not "in the loop".) Just that in this cases I am so much into discussing wonderful playdates, that I would not note others standing there and feeling left out...Ilanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292365558266518895noreply@blogger.com
