I Assumed My Daughter’s Friend Was Busy All Summer. When School Started, We Both Learned the Truth.

A parent writes to a parenting advice column describing a conflict with their neighbor over allowing the neighbor's younger child to play at their home. The neighbor's daughter, aged 8, had been visiting regularly, but the parent began limiting visits due to behavioral issues from the younger sister, who is 6 years old and has ADHD. The parent sent the younger sister home during playdates, which led to the neighbor's daughter being upset and refusing to allow the parent's child to visit her home. The parent feels conflicted about whether they were justified in limiting access to the younger child and seeks guidance on how to address the situation with the neighbor.
