[quote=Anonymous]There’s another carpool question floating around today which prompted me to finally ask this:

For half the year I’ve been picking up one of DD kindergarten classmates on Fridays. Mom is a single mom, has two other preschool-aged kids at home, one a toddler, and they attend a co-op that isn’t open on Fridays, and Friday is the one day a week she has to work a half-day in the office, so their grandma watches them. The toddler sleeps late, so the mom asked me if I would be willing to grab her kid (my DDs friend) in the mornings and drop off with my DD. I guess waking the toddler to do the drop off was making the child crabby all morning and difficult for the grandma.

It was fine and I didn’t mind it. I had to go about ten minutes out of my way, but it was fine. Only recently, maybe since daylight saving, when the grandma walks the girl out to my car, the toddler is wide awake and on her hip! I get that this is probably easier still than loading up three kids into the car every morning, but still, I agreed because of the sleep situation. I’m going out of my way in the morning now for NO reason, or at least not for the agreed upon reason and I’m feeling more than a little resentful. The girl tends to kick the seats and somehow always leaves dirt or sand behind. For whatever reason it’s way more annoying now. Even though we have only three more Fridays left, I’d love my 10 minutes back in the morning!

Should I just let it go, or should I say something tomorrow?[/quote]
