Not fit to be seen

One of K's schoolfriends is staying over tonight. I'm pleased, of course, that's she's made friends readily at her new school, and that she seems to have fitted in to the community without difficulty, Not that I would've expected otherwise, she's a nice person to know, and has vastly more 'people skills' than I do (albeit that's not much of an achievement, virtually everybody has more people skills than me). It seems, though, that I'm not even deemed worthy of even the briefest of introductions to her new friend - they've been sequestered in K's room since they arrived from school, almost two hours ago. Yeah, OK, teenagers, but is K that ashamed of me that even a few seconds of socialisation is beyond the pale?

Love & best wishes to all

  1. I think that's how teenagers work. All parents are to be avoided when in the company of friends. Though I agree that an introduction is in order. You could knock on the door, that's not exactly a police tactic!

    1. Hello Jay
      As I remember, when I visited friends' houses, or they visited mine, 'hello' and 'goodbye' was said, if nothing else. A small earthquake, in the great scheme of things, I guess, but it did make me feel I wasn't welcome, even in my own home.

      Love & best wishes
