[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Send her home after an hour. Text mom to let her know she’s on her way.[/quote] This isn’t that difficult, OP. You don’t need to waste time building a cross for yourself. Stop judging the mom, send the kid home and go have a nice afternoon at the pool. [/quote] +1[/quote] I can tell a few people on here are in the habit of assuming other parents in the neighborhood (and apparently quite a distance away!) will watch your kid anytime you feel like sending them out of the house. If you have a parents’ contact info, use it. A kid running down to knock on a neighbor’s door and returning home if they’re not there/not available is one thing. Knowing a kid has a long bike ride ahead of them puts a little more pressure on the unexpected hosts. I wouldn’t turn a kid who had ridden a long way away unless I had to, but yeah, sometimes it’s inconvenient even if you ultimately decide to do it. I would never send a kid on a long bike ride back home without communicating to make sure his or her parents knew they were on the way. [/quote]
