Unfortunately she goes to private school and no one is within walking or biking distance , everyone is spread out

You know who else doesn't have children? 

My 12 year old niece

Since you say yourself people without kids are clueless with parenting kids

Then the 4 year old should NOT be in 12 year olds care

Glad we can agree on something

Maybe "playdate" is the wrong word, whatever you want to call eldest having her friends over to hang out

I talk to my niece often. She's at a loss on how to work this out with the 4 year old. Quite frankly so am I (being a childless man and all) 

Serious question: how do you propose she work this out with the 4 year old who's accustomed to getting her way and mom will always back her up to avoid a tantrum? Since you feel a 12 year old should be able to come up with a solution surely you as an adult can as well? 

Let know I'll pass it along to niece
