She tells her mom that he hits her, kicks her in the eye, and does other mean things when he didn't. We were watching, and the little girl doesn't know we were there, she thought they were in the yard unsupervised. So anyway, she'll run in, starting to cry right before she opens the door, and tell us that he did these mean things. If we call her on it and tell her we were watching and she's not telling the truth, she'll quit crying, say 'oh', walk out the door, and try the same thing with her mother, who believes her every time. It's affecting our friendship. Her little girl is sweet and dainty, while my little boy looks like a football player, so everyone acts shocked and treats my little boy bad because they think my big ol' boy is beating up their tiny little girl. I've even went over there and told the mom that I was watching and the little girl is lying, as have my older children. So the mother might tell her to quit lying, but the very next time it happens, she believes her again

So my question is, what should we do? Should we secretly camcord them to show the mother? I've tried not letting them play together, but that never works for long. What would you do? Her boyfriend works for my husband, and I don't want him to quit, but I'm tired of my son always getting mistreated. Any reasonable suggestions?

get her mom to sometime come over your house, and let her watch. not only will she see the truth, but she can disipline her child. i think you should give it time after that and i think the girl will stop acting that way, she'll learn in school how unecessary that is. theres not much i can say except give it time.

Invite them both over for coffee and donuts one morning when the kids are about to go out to play and have the mom watch the kids with you, so she can see with her own eyes what is going on. She is going to believe her little angel anyway, cause that is a mother's nature to do. Try it and let me know what happens!

Next time the girl wants to come play, make sure her mother or another of her family member's is there. Then simply watch them, making sure neither of you is seen.

I would limit this friendship of yours to adult only outtings... rare as they may be, I wouldn't want my son subjected to that
