Why on earth would you WANT a child at your house for the night that didn't want to be there--it sounds like a nightmare to me. The other mother's definitely a freak.

Well the stories that I am hearing today from my daughter and two of her friends that are here to spend the night.....
Oh boy! To sum it up, DD's now ex-friend is telling everyone at school what a baby DD is. Well it backfired. All the girls think she is being a brat by making fun of DD and they have turned their back on her.
I cannot help but feel bad for this little girl.
I blame her mother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If she started it trying to be mean to your DD....I don't feel sorry for her.
She is doing what is called "learning the HARD way"
I am grateful it worked out the way it did for your DD.
Something somewhat similar happened to DS at basketball this week. DS has asthma. The boys on the team are all working to raise each other up and are supporting each other as a team.
Anyway, these 2 girls were hiding and taking video of them running the stair wells. My son stopped and had a hard time catching his breath. The girls were laughing and taping it and making fun of him.
A VERY VERY popular guy from the team that the girls would have wanted attention from came around the corner....helped my son up and said "you ****es suck" and went off with son.
Didn't quite work out the way the girls wanted at ALL. DS came home telling me it was a GREAT practice and this is why...the other guy turned a sucky moment into a GREAT one.

My girls are 7 & 8 and have never asked to stay away from home. I would be hesitant even if they did, but with a pushy mom like that you definitely did the right thing!
don't worry about it, this too shall pass...I believe it is just a phase...i wouldn't pressure her to sleepover.

Boys have that fear of sleeping over too. One of my sons friends tried many times to sleep over but didn't master his fear until he was 15 yrs old. Never did we judge him, it is what it is. Everyone is uncomfortable about something...This woman is not a compassionate person. Where are her motherly instincts?
I'm an only child and I can tell you that I never ever slept at anyone's house til I was an adult and let me tell you I hated it. Even when I was little I refused to sleep at anyone's house. My mom would try to leave me with my aunts but I would not have it would pitch a fit. NOPE ain't going to do it.
My DD have NEVER slept at anyone's house. I never wanted anyone sleeping here either. Gives me the creeps to have my DDs at someone's home where I would not be there.
Oh and DD has a friend that is being a big baby because DD canceled plans with her twice. Get over it kid life doesn't always have to go your way is what I want to say to her.
And keep your kids away from nutter parents, you'll be saner for it.

The mother is truly engaging in bullying behavior - her DD can't play with your DD until your DD does what they want them to. I would never allow my DD to sleep over there - I would never trust that this mom and daughter wouldn't tease your daughter. And i certainly question why a mother gets so overly involved in this - your DD changed her mind, did not feel ready - that is her decision and I am proud of you and DD for sticking to your beliefs. Your DD will someday sleep over at a friend's house when she is ready to. And then, it will be a true friend's house with a caring mother there.
I am going to be honest with you - I did go to sleepovers as a child and hated every single one. I just do not like to sleep at other people's houses. To this day I am the same way. I am fine to sleep at a hotel but just do not like staying at other's houses.
It is sad you and your DD have to be the recipients of these mean spirited people....
HUGS - hope your DD and her friends enjoy sleeping at your house tonite.
PS Wanted to add - perhaps there is a reason your DD does not want to stay over - when she has played there maybe she has noticed something that makes her not want to sleep there or be there that long. I say trust your instincts and your daughter's. She might even know exactly what it is but it might just be a feeling she has....just a thought

My first thing is faux em! You need to do what is right by your daughter. Period. Do not let anyone bully you or her into something.
2nd thing is to figure what IS right for your daughter. Sometimes kids need a push. The more you try to "protect" them from life... The more dependant they will be on you. She needs to be independant.
But again... IDK what is best for your daughter and at what point. That is entirely YOUR call! No one else's!
