[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would just get the snacks, then be very wary about agreeing to do favors in the future. [/quote] +1 This. It's hard to tell from the post whether the mom is regularly rude/thoughtless or just very overwhelmed and not handling things very well. I'd try to give her the benefit of the doubt and just get the snacks, do the favor I already promised, and let it roll off my back. Sometimes we don't handle things perfectly and I'd hope for the same grace if I was going through a tough spot. But I'd pay attention to how she acts going forward - does she try to repay the favor? Is she more thoughtful and appreciative of other people's time when she's not in crisis mode? And decide how helpful I want to be going forward based on that.[/quote]
