[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don’t know this type. Maybe it’s because I was a WOHM prior to being a SAHM? I tend to see these as real emergencies rather than people trying to take advantage of me. In fact, I know a lot of two-physician couples, and I offer all of the time to be emergency back up care if their nanny is sick or some other emergency comes up. [/quote] No. It's a type. And you can tell who they are by the third request. You'd be shocked.[/quote] Agree, it’s a type. I have gotten better about identifying it early and cutting off requests. I’m happy to help friends but not users, and there is a big difference. [/quote] It’s totally a type. They like to throw the phrase “it takes a village!” around to make you feel like a real a-hole if you turn them down.[/quote] Yes!! The askers are always saying it takes a village. Everyone else seems to get it done on their own or hire a sitter. [/quote]
