[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think in your shoes I would think through whose needs I was prioritising. If I felt like this friendship was really important to my DD and for whatever reason being accommodating helped to keep it going to be honest I’d probably just suck it up for a bit. They’re 14, this won’t go on much longer. But for sure, I would not prioritise the needs of an unreasonably anxious Mom just for the heck of it.[/quote]
The first time it happened I texted her and told her I had to leave, she sort of melted down. I tried to reassure her that it would be short, a half hour tops, and our tattle tale younger DD would be there to chaperone (half joking) but nope.

I’m honestly thinking I won’t ask permission next time and just hope she never finds out. [/quote]

What do you mean 'nope'. You're a grown up and another grown up is telling you how to spend your time? You my friend, have been duped into being an uncompensated nanny.

Homegirl should pay for a sitter if she's so concerned. It's almost July - what is this lady's summer plan for her kid?[/quote]
