[quote=Anonymous]I have 3 kids and I’m a SAHM. I am often the one asking for help and I also often help. I don’t ever feel like I am being taken advantage of or vice versa. When I was a mom of two, I built up a lot of goodwill by doing many favors for others and then many paid me back or offered because I had a baby/toddler. Now the people who help me aren’t always the ones who I helped. I think if it is only one way you are being taken advantage of. If that mom who asks for sleepover favors never reciprocates, I would say no. No is a full sentence. It does not make you look like an a$$. I find the people who I have helped also go out of their way to help me out when they can. [/quote]
