How do friendships work when one friend has children and the other does not?

Friendships change when one person becomes a parent. The parent has new limits on time and energy. A friend must understand these new limits.

The rule

Friendships change when one person becomes a parent.

The parent has new limits on time and energy. A friend must understand these new limits.

Friendships require effort from both people. When one friend becomes a parent, their life changes. The parent has less free time. The parent has less energy. The parent has more responsibilities. The friend without children needs to understand these changes. The friend without children may need to give more effort. This effort could be traveling to the parent's home. This effort could be helping with small tasks. This helps the friendship continue. The parent can ask for specific help. The parent can explain their new limits. This open talk helps both friends understand their roles.

A parent wants to see a friend. The parent cannot easily leave home. The parent asks the friend to visit. The friend understands and travels to the parent's house. This keeps the friendship strong.
