how would you handle?

My wife and I live in a condo. Out neighbor's have two children, boys, a 7 and 2y.o. we have fraternal twin boys, 6. My boys love to play with the neighbor's oldest. However one of my sons has ADHD and gets highly agitated when the neighbor's soon decides he doesn't want to play with him or doesn't want to play a particular game. My other bit is much more easy going but is slighter than the neighbor's son. The neighbor's soon had knocked him to the ground a couple of times and lied about it. M growing tired of having to calm my son's down after this kid does something either of them. the boys father is not in the picture but the mothers fiance is. Unfortunately he had no control over the boy.

Explain to your kids about how to know they have the option to NOT play with kids they dont like or are not being nice. The parents need to stay out of it as much as possible and give some direction as neither kid is in any "danger"...If your kid chooses to play with them you point out that the good and the bad of the decision and let it be..they are only 6 :-) Good luck and its all about playing in the sandbox properly. LOL good luck

@black4white I agree and we've had this discuss. They have some social issues which is extending the understanding of sandbox politics. Lol

@biandlargeny totally understood but you just keep discussing simply because these are VALUABLE life lessons that can only be taught by life experiences :-) lol good luck
