Hi
Just wondering if anyone else feels as though they are in a similar situation to me.
My ds is an only and I constantly worry that he doesn,t get enough company of his own age.
Ther are no children of his age in the family and I myself am fairly shy which has always been a real curse for me.
There is a bit of a lack of children in the neighbourhood for him to play with.
I therfore try and arrange playdates for him from school and also I keep him in ouch with mates from his old infant school.
The problem is that I sometimes feel as though I am beating my head up a wall as its always me that does the running, who phones other parents asking if their dc wants to come over and play and I have found that despite alot of my efforts nobody ever contacts us and suggests getting our children together over holidays etc.
Poeple are usually more than happy for their child to come and I even take their dc's out spend money on them etc.
I feel as thoug my ds would never see a soul if it wasn,t for my efforts and although I know people lead busy lives etc I just think that they could also make the effort sometimes to contact us.
Am I the only one to feel this way or is it me been silly.
Should I carry on as I am despite this.
