[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This whole thread is so strange. Sometimes kids knock or walk over wanting to play. If my kids want to play and we’re not busy, they play outside. If we are busy, my kid says, “Sorry, we are busy.” and other kid goes home. Or, “I can play for 30 minutes.”

Why would there be any expectation that the kid is joining your outing for the day? [/quote]

+1.

I would actually think it was kind of odd if my kid rode her bike over to play for a little bit, and you took her to the pool for the rest of the afternoon.

Yes.  I will foist my kid off on a bike ride for an hour, but I expect her to come back.   I don’t really expect other parents to be driving away with her to some other place.  [/quote]
+2. And for an adult to be driving away the child or taking them somewhere without telling parents that would be kidnapping! [/quote]

LOL, tell it to the officer. You sent your kid down unsupervised with no communication. “Can Carla play?” She sure can, we’re going to our cousins’ house and we’ve got an extra carseat. Shrug. If you gave a damn where your kid was or who they were with or what you’d be doing, you’d communicate with the other parent. If your child asks to call and make sure it’s OK first, oh sure here’s my phone. Don’t want your child going places and doing things with my family? Don’t send her down to my house without connecting with me.[/quote]

You are insane, only have a toddler, or are trolling. My 10yo son goes out on his bike and knocks on friends doors and meets up with kids in the park. You think I should be texting all the parents in the neighborhood to see if their sons want to play?! No. My son is allowed to bike around the neighborhood by himself but I would certainly not be happy if another parent took him somewhere without texting me first! [/quote]

Welp, I guess you don’t know what the other parent thinks is acceptable or OK for kids your age unless you…text or call and get on the same page! Knock knock can Janie play? Sure, we’re going to the pool. And we’re having ice cream while we’re there…

I guess if you want to know where your kid is and what they’re doing you should communicate with parents before you send kids around to be supervised by other people. [/quote]

So you're going to kidnap their kid to teach the parents a lesson? Great idea! Or just say that your kids can only play for an hour b/c you have plans or just say sorry you're busy. That's how this works. But I doubt kids like this would make a stop at your house because you don't exactly sound like a go with the flow the more the merrier type so this would never happen to you.[/quote]

Oh no honey, it's not kidnapping. Your kid came by to see if my kid can play. She sure can, we're going to the pool and we're getting ice cream while we're there--want to come? Or of course you can hang with us--we're going for a long hike that starts at the trail head at the end of our street. If your kid asks to call you first, I'll facilitate that. But otherwise, I am sure you're fine with whatever we'd like to do since you didn't communicate with me. Surely you told your kid they needed to be home by a certain time and they'll communicate to me--oh what's that, they forgot? And now you don't know where your kid is and they were supposed to be home an hour ago and now you're missing a family event? Oh dear oh dear maybe communicate with the parents next time. [/quote]

Lady, you don't have friends and this would never happen to you. You don't need to keep spinning your wheels imagining these fake scenarios. [/quote]

You bftchws need to chill TF out dam [/quote]
