[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry your free childcare is gone OP. My kids don’t like the cold.[/quote]

Op here. None of the parents were outside, just the kids. 6-13 year olds in elementary and middle school.

Do your kids play at recess?

I’m curious, do many kids not like cold weather?

We are in the DMV, not too cold not too snowy in these months either.[/quote]

Your kids were still out of your hair and now their entertainment is gone. I’m in the DMV and no my kids don’t want to play outside when it’s 40. Do you let the neighbors play inside your home?[/quote]

DP but you’re an awful person and a terrible mother.  I hope your kids enjoy their parent-inflicted myopia.[/quote]

Dp Well the op wants to convince the neighborhood kids to come out to play..

Enjoying books, puzzles, games and crafts is just as virtuous as running around outside in the cold. Not every child has ADHD.[/quote]

It’s literally not, though. [/quote]

It is. OP will just have to entertain her own kids rather than expecting neighbor kids to do it. I suspect hers are hyper and annoying. [/quote]

Why does dcum always think playing with the neighborhood kids is expecting childcare? It's just normal, being a kid fun.[/quote]

Honestly I find both sides of this weird. Playing with kids in the neighborhood isn't childcare, but [b]it's also not something the other kids are obligated to do [/b]if they don't want to because it's cold. [/quote]

And literally nobody is trying to *make* anyone do anything, so what’s your point?[/quote][/quote]
