Say your kid makes good friends with the new neighbors kid. They both hang out and finally little "Timmy" has a same age buddy to frolic out with. Now you are glad that your "timmy" has a play pal but now the kid's parents want to get to know you....you aren't looking for new friends and the kid's parents aren't enticing people to begin with...
....so do you forge a friendship out of the goodness for your kid or do you keep your distance and make it quite evident to the neighbors that you have no intention of forming any friendly relations and only want your kid to befriend their kid?
Obviously the neighbor will take that as an insult and put up some sort of restrictions on their kid barring him to play with your kid.....so for the sake of your child's happiness do you force yourself to hang out with boring people?
