[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right! You know you’re being used if the mom isn’t available for these play dates after she suggests them. If the other mom says that they can go to her house to watch the movie, then you know you were not being used.[/quote] +1 I'll add that what this mom did is not the same as stating up front that you're asking for a favor, which I've had parents of my kids' friends do (we're also friendly with the parents). "Spouse and I will be in the office today, is it okay if Larla comes over after school? I can pick her up at 5:30pm" - that's totally fine because it's honest. Maybe it's a thing with rude people, but I don't think it's a thing generally.[/quote]
