[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course not-clearly the other mother is rude. Just tell her that you have plans in an hour so will need to send the child back before then.[/quote]
How is the other mom rude? (And even if so, why isn’t the other dad, too?). The kid came and asked to play. OP just has to say “Sorry, it’s not a good day.”[/quote]

It’s rude to just send a youngish child over to play with a friend (especially right at lunch time) without first confirming with the other family that it is convenient for them. It’s doubling down on rude to simply respond “no” when asked if your uninvited child has already eaten and apparently presuming the other family will feed them lunch without apology or offer to provide something.

The OP specifically indicated that she was in contact with the mom regarding this incident. If the dad was also home and involved then yes, he’s also equally rude, but we have no information to suggest that he was around (or even in the picture). It’s not discriminatory to go off of what the op stated in assigning responsibility.[/quote]
