[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you also need to be prepared that this may end the friendship if you confront her about it. She'll likely get defensive and it will likely make things weird. I would just end the playdates if it was me. Just start having it be moms nights out. Or coffee dates when the other parent is around. That's what I've done with my mom friends as our kids have aged. [/quote] This. These are just play dates. Just don’t have them at your house in this context. Unless she is counting on you having him over for consistent scheduled “play dates” in place of childcare for when she needs to get things done. If you are really the part-time nanny, then yes say something. Just play dates, no. See them at the playground, meet up at the zoo, get ice cream together. There are tons of ways to stay connected and friends without him getting dropped off at your house [/quote]
