[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I guess I am in the wrong. She called me back and cancelled.

My kid has a medical condition that means she has to have access to a balanced snack. I prioritized my daughter's health over the plan made so that I could dash into a grocery store to grab something.

If being 15 minutes late to do this is outrageous, I'm glad that I know it now.

You were in the wrong. Life happens. A quick dash to the grocery store can end up taking much longer than expected, especially if there are only certain foods your daughter can eat and you don't have nay of those in the house. It doesn't sound outrageous, it just sounds high maintenance. You could have left earlier to go to the store. What would your daughter have eaten if you weren't going on the playdate? Surely you had something in the house she could eat.

Stop playing the victim, it just didn't work out. [/quote]

lol, 15 minutes late so she bails?  That is crazy to me.

I couldn't agree more.  You are NOT the victim here OP - if your daughter has that sever of a medical problem, it is something you should have handled sooner.  You made another mother and child wait for you for 15 minutes and that is rude.  Other mothers have children with medical issues and still manage to be on time.  [/quote][/quote]
