kikipie, I'm glad your friendship is still in tact. Just be glad it wasn't something irreplaceable!
I kind of disagree. I know kids will be kids but discipline starts at a young age. People's stuff shouldn't be victim to anyone's child. I think that when parents teach their kids at a young age what they can and can't do at someone elses house, it prevents more accidents. Kids are more than smart enough by 2 to understand. That is what we did with my nephew anyway. He was allowed to play but he knew what he could and could not go near. As a parent you (not you but general) have to also respect the friends house too, especially if they don't have kids. Just my opinion though, no one has to agree.
