Hi all,
I've got a dilemma I need some help with -
I've got a good friend who has a little boy the same age as mine, who I met about a year ago through a slimming group. We got on really well and became quite close - we were also "gym" buddies!
However, when we decided to get our boys together, things have gone a bit wrong. I usually get on really well with kids but I've taken an instant dislike to her son - and I more I see him the worse I feel. I feel really bad about my dislike for him - I don't really understand why I feel so strongly - but its not just him, it his behaviour, and I don't want my little boy around a child that behave so badly (and spoilt) as him.
I've tried to get our friendship back to what it was before, but my friend only seems to want to get together with the boys - we don't go to the gym anymore, and we rarely do anything together anymore. I don't want to lose the friendship but I really don't want our kids mixing!
You'll probaly think I'm awful, but I don't know what to do!!! It's not as if I can tell her that I don't like her son!
Please help!!
