[quote=Anonymous]Are you sure the bat being left behind was an accident?  I’d at least think about that if you intend to continue with the team.  It’s expensive and necessairy and just not the sort of thing someone accidentally leaves and then doesn’t move heaven and earth to get back.

As for the other mom, did she think it was your son texting?  You could always respond by saying “You are referring to my husband, not my son, and my husband is right, we aren’t a delivery service.  If you would like to function as delivery service, come on over”. Then if she shows up, get a picture of her taking the bat so you don’t get tagged if it disappears, this is why door cameras are popular, you get pictures without taking someone’s picture.

I also wonder too why your husband got involved if the womenfolk had it under control.  I’m a woman btw.  Were you upset about the bat? If so, then you have a good husband.  If you didn’t like how he handled the situation then first think about how you handle stress and if he’s trying to help you.

If the bat didn’t bother you at all, then your husband needs to cool his jets, he’s right, but he isn’t nice.  Nobody else has to put up with him or his bluntness and his bluntness could very likely filter down to how you and your kid are treated.  It’s not fair, but people respond to how parents behave.

Finally, I’d wonder why you care so much about what another mom says to do.  What exactly is her hold over you?  Again, I’ve had texted her back with what I said earlier “you are referring to my husband, not my son, and if you’d like to deliver the bat, you are welcome to do so”.

I also wouldn’t leave the bat on the porch, not given how expensive it is.

Finally, this sort of  nonsense is what can kill a person’s desire to help others.  Don’t be surprised if your husband can’t muster the energy to help in the future, not when he’s technically correct, and more importantly, not when he is treated like a schoolboy. [/quote]
