[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you really want her to stop then the next time she asks say "I'm not sure -- I was talking to my kids and not paying attention to who is getting on. Sorry!"

Do this once or twice and on other days wait a few hours to reply and then so "sorry just seeing this! got bogged down with work this morning."

You are making yourself useful to her right now. If you resent that then become less useful and she will leave you alone.[/quote]

This is good advice. But OP, be prepared to be treated as you are treated. Most go through tough times in life. Maybe you won’t and therefore won’t need help from others, ever.[/quote]

This is such a typical DCUM dramatic post. If the mom feels her child is self sufficient enough to send him to the bus stop alone then she doesn’t need to text OP every day for confirmation or expect OP to take responsibility. OP could also say she doesn’t always notice who is or isn’t at the bus stop but if she notices her kid missing the bus she’ll be glad to let her know. [/quote]
