[quote=Anonymous]Often? Always? I am a SAHM and I have ZERO problem in being the caregiver (gratis) for friends of my children or for neighbors. Sure, I will drop and pick them up, let them be in my house after school, make sure that they remove their shoes indoors, wash their hands, eat a snack and do their homework. I do that because it is in my power to do this favor to them and their parents. I want my kids to know that it is ok to do favors for others (Yes, even if it is not reciprocated), and I want my kids to know how to behave with others. These small asks are not something that will break me or make me poor. On the other hand, if you do not have the bandwidth or feel that you are being treated like a doormat or feel that you want to nurture reciprocal relationships then you just say that it does not work for you. Do not waste brain space on these kinds of minor problems. [/quote]
