[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you’re the one who wants to talk to me!! It’s so entitled. There’s a dad in my child’s friend group who does this all the time. Maybe it’s just a verbal tic, but if YOU want to talk to me, then you should call me or ask when a good time is for you to call. Do not order me to call you. 
Ex- planned outing with teen boys. [b]Son asks friend if he’s free that day. Friend says my dad said your mom should call him with details.[/b] I’m sure in a day or so, he’ll email or text and say- can you call me to talk about this activity.

Same rules apply at work. Person who wants to talk doesn’t ask the other person to call / send calendar invite unless the initiator is higher up the food chain. [/quote]

I don't think this is odd. Your son issued an invitation and the dad is asking for the invitation to come directly from "the source". Maybe he feels like calling and saying "Josh says Nathan invited him to X" feels too much like inviting his kid?

I agree with your work point, though.[/quote]
