[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My last question, on the days that the mom is home do they offer to pick your child up? If not, they are users. [/quote] NP. I tend to agree with this general sentiment. This is the kind of long-standing, ongoing, non "something came up", kind of request for help that should come with some kind of a reciprocal offer. This is an imposition, and the other family is not even really in a bind -- they have grandam available to drive. Getting kids out of the door in the morning is a PITA. I see posts complaining about it all the time. I would never dream of asking my neighbor to add to their mornings by driving out of their way and picking up my child and taking them to school three mornings a week without, in the same breath, offering something in return. If my car were not big enough to drive their child some mornings, then perhaps I could offer to host a standing playdate or standing playground outing or something! [/quote]
