[quote=Anonymous]This happened to me once, and I was a little uncomfortable with it, but I understood that maybe there was an emergency and let it go. But then the contractor asked if the kid could stay with me for a few minutes while he ran to Home Depot. I was an idiot and agreed -- he was gone for HOURS (I still don't know where he went -- it couldn't have been just to Home Depot!) and I was there with this kid I didn't know. The contractor was a sub for our main contractor, so I didn't even have a direct phone number or anything...I was like, is he ever coming back? It was super uncomfortable. So, to answer the question in the subject line, what I did was let it go and offer free hours-long babysitting. I was a young, pushover of a moron, so I don't recommend that. :lol: I think you can let the kids' presence slide if it's an occasional thing, but don't let the contractor leave for "Home Depot" without taking his kid with him![/quote]
