That was another thing I was worried about. I have cousins who are around that age that my son interacts with regularly and I'm fine with it but with someone else's kid and I don't like their parenting style already....I haven't let my son around him since Thursday so hopefully slowly but surely they'll get the hint. We have a few kids in the neighborhood who are closer to his age so he can play with them. I don't expect to like all my neighbors but I try to have respect for them and I honestly have to try very hard not to let my mouth get the best of me with her and what she considers normal. I'd rather just not deal with it at all.
